As I have not get any reply from this thread, I tried ubuntu forums and Kino home page. With the help of these I solved my problem as under.

After installing Video Capture software KINO, I became root user for write access permission as under and I am able to capture the video from camcorder.

sudo chown root /dev/raw1394

for that session only.

But it is not permanent solution, hence I tried for a prmanent solution and got it in the Ubuntu Forums. The code is as under

sudo gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/40-permissions.

here is the link. Go to the page and navigate at last in Extras

I think those who use ubuntu OS and try to capture video from Mini DV camcorder through IEEE 1394 PCI fireware card will help.
thnaks.
