firewire_ohci does not create devices in testing/jessie



  Hello list,

I am having trouble using my Sony camcorder with dvgrab. It is connected using a PCMCIA Firewire Notebook
Adapter from Belkin.
This is when using Testing/Jessie installed using the installer from March 16-th, so just a few
days before the alfa release of the installer.

The problem is that the /dev/fw? devices are not created.
Why does that not happen, while the hardware seems to be recognised as shown by the logs, see below.
Also, the Sony camcorder recognizes the DV-interface when firewire cable is connected.

It all worked perfectly under debian wheezy.

  Is there a better way to debug this?
  Thanks in advance,
                Sietse
