Hi Eric, Thanks for your fast reply, but unfortunately the error still persist even after changing the owner and the group to the username of the user that i am trying to run the code from. This is the output that i get after running $ ls -l /dev/*1394* Output: crw-rw---- 1 shuttle shuttle 171, 0 2011-02-07 13:42 /dev/raw1394 /dev/video1394: total 0 crw-rw----+ 1 shuttle shuttle 171, 16 2011-02-07 13:42 0 Date: Mon, 7 Feb 2011 01:05:50 -0500 From: wisesage5001@gmail.com To: ros-users@code.ros.org Subject: Re: [ros-users] Trying to get bumblebee2 to work 2011/2/7 xr tay Hello everyone, I'm using ROS C Turtle with BASE, running on Ubuntu 10.04(lucid) with Kernel Linux 2.6.32-25-generic. I try to launch the bumblebee2 using: roslaunch bumblebee2 Bumblebee2.launch However, the following error was generated: libdc1394 error: Failed to initialize libdc1394 [FATAL] [1297056569.563407417]: [camera] exception opening device: [Camera1394::open]: Could not initialize dc1394_context. Make sure /dev/raw1394 exists, you have ac I have tried using these three commands to fix the error: $ sudo modprobe raw1394 $ ls -la /dev/raw1394 (output is "crw-rw---- 1 root root 171, 0 2011-02-07 13:42 /dev/raw1394") $ sudo chmod a+rw /dev/raw1394 I usually do sudo chown -R username:username /dev/*1394* where username is the username of the user you are trying to run code from. This lets me use my Point Grey firewire cameras. I found that I usually need permissions on more than just the /dev/raw1394 device, hence the recursive chown. Hope that helps. - Eric but the error is still there, so i was hoping if anyone have any idea on how to solve this error.
