Details

I insert modules raw1394 and dmesg say:

[root@p3 ~]# dmesg | grep raw1394
ieee1394: raw1394: /dev/raw1394 device initialized
[root@p3 ~]#

device /dev/raw1394 doesn't exist but I have

[root@p3 ~]# ls -l /dev/raw/raw1394
crw-rw---- 1 root root 171, 0 2005-11-29 23:18 /dev/raw/raw1394
[root@p3 ~]#

owner: root and group: root
but, if I understand udev rules, the group should be: video

[root@p3 ~]# less /etc/udev/rules.d/udev.rules | grep raw
# raw devices
KERNEL=="raw[0-9]*", NAME="raw/%k"
KERNEL=="raw1394", NAME="%k", GROUP="video"
[root@p3 ~]#

where is the problem?
This task depends upon

KERNEL=="raw[0-9]*", NAME="raw/%k"

KERNEL=="raw1394", NAME="%k", GROUP="video"

Udev matches the first and will ignore the other one. I don't know where raw[0-9] is used with, but it certainly isn't firewire. Swap the rules and firewire devices should get the right permissions and devicenode.
