Mount points? Anyway, I haven’t used it in Debian for a while, but I’m pretty sure that it automatically loaded the correct kernel drivers. To get it working in programs such as Ekiga, I had to install some extra packages, but the raw devices were there. If you can’t get it working I can plug it into a Debian box with firewire and have a play.

Those mount points existed after that. I then added myself to group disk and coriander could start. Still need to do something about loopback to use V4L.

I thought this should be supported by the kernel, I can see that firewire is installed already. I have tried to use coriander after finding reference to that, coriander complains is needs raw1394 and video1394 and that it needs /dev/raw1394 and /dev/video1394 which dont exist.
