For generic installation documentation, please see http://subversion.ffado.org/wiki/InstallingFfadoFromSource.

Below are only those issues that are specific to Ubuntu Feisty.

db2ps (for libraw1394, provided by docbook-utils)

  $ sudo apt-get install subversion libiec61883-0 libiec61883-dev libavc1394-0 libavc1394-dev libxml++2.6c2a libxml++2.6-dev liblo0 liblo0-dev docbook-utils

libraw1394 >= 1.3.0 (=> SVN)

  svn co svn://svn.linux1394.org/libraw1394/trunk libraw1394-svn
  cd libraw1394-svn
  autoreconf -f -i -s
  ./configure --prefix=YOUR_PREFIX
  make
  sudo make install

kernel >= 2.6.21 if you want to use the streaming system. The device control parts will work fine with older kernels. Ubuntu Feisty contains a patched 2.6.20 kernel that should work as well.
