thanks! that did the trick - this may not be the right way, but at least
it works:

1. unplug camera
2. unload all ieee / 1394 modules (may I don't need to do all, but I did
anyway).  iee1394 couldn't be unloaded without first unloading raw1394.
3. load raw1394 and dv1394
4. run udevstart
5. plug in camera

eg:

$ sudo modprobe -r dv1394 raw1394 ohci1394 ieee1394 
$ lsmod | grep 1394
$ sudo modprobe raw1394 
$ sudo modprobe dv1394 
$ sudo udevstart 
$ sudo kino

thanks,
