I have Firewire ports available on both my desktop boxes. All the distros in use here support IEEE1394, including Debian (64 Studio 2.1), OpenSUSE (JAD 1.0), and Ubuntu (Jaunty and Karmic). The 2.6.32 kernel has recoded the Firewire drivers for greater compatibility with the FFADO project, and IIUC it seems that Apple has heeded its users' cries of outrage and is putting the iLink ports back on their machines. Two days ago I transferred an hour-long show from my miniDV camera to Kino running in Jaunty. It worked perfectly. Are you having a specific problem with connections or is there some other problem ?
