Binary package hint: dvgrab

$ dvgrab -a tape-
Error: no camera exists

Solved by doing:
$ sudo chmod -v a+rw /dev/*1394

$ dvgrab -a tape-
Error: no camera exists

while the camcorder is well connected.
This issue is not new, had the same with Kubuntu 9.10. The same hardware (PC and camcorder) was working fine in previous version of Kubuntu (I don't remember which one exactly, but it used to work).

Thanks for your help.
