This is a different bug. You could report it separately in a new bug entry. But before that, please test the current version of Kino first (version 1.3.4), which appears to be available as a package now. (I saw that Debian packaged it, hence I guess it is also available on Ubuntu. I don't have Debian or Ubuntu myself.) > So the fact that I went from windows to Linux was the free software, > but as I can see here, this problem has been there for around 4 years > now!!!!!! Free software means, among else, that distributors and/or users can fix problems themselves if they have the necessary knowledge or experience. And indeed, the /dev/raw1394 permissions problem - does not exist on several other distributions than Ubuntu, - can be fixed by Ubuntu users by adding a local udev rule (there is guidance somewhere on the Ubuntu wiki (help.ubuntu.com) as well as on the upstream wiki, see comment 55), - is going to be fixed in Ubuntu as well in a future release, when Ubuntu fully switches to newer kernel drivers which implement a superior device access concept and thus address the security concerns that were brought up by Ubuntu package maintainers and many others. On the other hand, free software does _not_ mean that everything works immediately or is being fixed for you, at no cost, in a matter of hours. -- DV capture over Firewire is broken (no rights for /dev/raw1394) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/6290 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
