Since I roll my kernel I don't know if it's still the case, if so you'll probably have to recompile the kernel to do anything useful with firewire.
I checked it seems to still be true: Stock kernel egrep -i ieee1394 /boot/config-2.6.28-1-amd64 # CONFIG_IEEE1394 is not set egrep -i firewire /boot/config-2.6.28-1-amd64 # IEEE 1394 (FireWire) support CONFIG_FIREWIRE=m CONFIG_FIREWIRE_OHCI=m CONFIG_FIREWIRE_OHCI_DEBUG=y CONFIG_FIREWIRE_SBP2=m # CONFIG_FIREWIRE_OHCI_REMOTE_DMA is not set My "working" kernel: egrep -i ieee1394 /boot/config-$(uname -r) CONFIG_IEEE1394=m CONFIG_IEEE1394_OHCI1394=m # CONFIG_IEEE1394_PCILYNX is not set CONFIG_IEEE1394_SBP2=m CONFIG_IEEE1394_SBP2_PHYS_DMA=y CONFIG_IEEE1394_ETH1394_ROM_ENTRY=y CONFIG_IEEE1394_ETH1394=m CONFIG_IEEE1394_RAWIO=m CONFIG_IEEE1394_VIDEO1394=m # CONFIG_IEEE1394_DV1394 is not set # CONFIG_IEEE1394_VERBOSEDEBUG is not set egrep -i firewire /boot/config-$(uname -r) # IEEE 1394 (FireWire) support # CONFIG_FIREWIRE is not set So if it still doesn't work, you might want to look there.
