Zac & Mike, Thanks for the responses. I am getting a device /dev/raw/raw1394 created when I load the module and removed when I rmmod the module:
godzilla ~ # ls -la /dev/raw ls: /dev/raw: No such file or directory godzilla ~ # modprobe raw1394 godzilla ~ # ls -la /dev/raw total 0 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 60 Jul 17 15:05 . drwxr-xr-x 18 root root 13660 Jul 17 15:05 .. crw-rw---- 1 root disk 171, 0 Jul 17 15:05 raw1394 godzilla ~ # What's throwing me is that the libraw1394 emerge makes this limited complaint: ******************************************** Required /dev/raw1394 device file not found. Run 'make dev' to create it. ******************************************** It seems to me that if the device was moved by either udev or the Gentoo developers then shouldn't this package have been modified to understand that and not throw a message like this? Or is there possibly supposed to be a link of some type from /dev/raw1394 to /dev/raw/raw1394? Or is my device not the same as yours?
