Comment 17 for bug 205583

Out of the box clean install of 9.04 using kdenlive or kino, the DV capture
does not work.

john@HTLX:~$ dvgrab
raw1394 - failed to get handle: Permission denied.

I tried the solution chmod, but it didn't work. (

chmod, and also did it as root.

Any ideas? what command line output can I provide? Thanks.
