It isn't included because it doesn't work with the new firewire stack in 2.6.22 and going to the new one makes a lot of sense security wise as far as I understand it. It is now up to the user space tools to learn to work with the new firewire stack, which is unfortunately taking much longer that I would have imagined. -- Len Sorensen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
