Bug description:
  Duncan Lithgow reopened this bug.

  In Ubuntu 8.10 importing dv over firewire does not "just work" with
  Kino 1.3.0

  I'm back at the familiar message: "WARNING: raw1394 kernel module not
  loaded or failure to read/write /dev/raw1394

  My first guess is that this is because someone forgot to set the flag
  needed during the build to enable support for /dev/dv1394/0 (in the
  video group) which is not enabled by default... by default there is
  only access to /dev/raw1394 (in the disc group) which we've agreed is
  not the best solution for most users.

  Running Kino as root does not (strangely) get around this problem. I
  get the same error messages plus one about no camera being detected.
  It just switches between them.
