Along the lines of the "firewire drive" thread, I have a question on how to get a video device working... setup: system: SuSE 8.1; kernel 2.4.19; relatively stock [one mod to usb module so far...] 466mhz celeron; soundblaster "audigy" card for the firewire port [though I also have a standalone firewire card available -- pyro brand card] ASUS motherboard camera: sony TRV-3011 following some advice dredged up on this thread, I tried modprobing the following drivers: ieee1394 ohci1394 raw1394 [then I stopped and thought about things; checked the /lib/modules... hierarchy, and found: video1394 plugged in the device, got the following at the end of /var/log/messages: kernel: ohci1394: $Rev: 530 $ Ben Collins kernel: PCI: found IRQ 11 for device 00:0d.2 kernel: ohci1394_0: OHCI-1394 1.1 (PCI): IRQ=[11] MMIO=[cc000000-cc000800] Max Packet=[2048] kernel: ieee1394: Host added: Node[00:1023] GUID[00023c0021006ee9] [Linux OHCI-1394] kernel: raw1394: /dev/raw1394 device initialized kernel: video1394: Installed video1394 module kernel: ieee1394: Device added: Node[00:1023] GUID[0800460102328737] [Sony] kernel: ieee1394: Node 00:1023 changed to 01:1023 /etc/hotplug/ieee1394.agent[1233]: ... no drivers for IEEE1394 product 0x080046/0x00a02d/0x010001 [reformatted for readability] Is there then a sony-specific driver I need to be looking for? [does it exist?] {is sony "linux friendly"?} <sony consumer electronics division, that is...>
