Comment 5 for bug 50923

For me, on Feisty, Ekiga looks to /dev/raw1394 for Firewire cameras, not /dev/dv1394/0 as Kino does. I had to change the permissions on /dev/raw1394 (chmod o+rw /dev/raw1394) for my camera to be detected. Also, I get kernel messages thus:

This is using a Canon MV750i on Fiesty:
