Well firewire doesn't work on my mythtv box either. Nothing I can do about it (unless I want to recompile my kernel which I don't really feel like).

:D, sosolution is NOT upgrade.dan kennedy (from kino/dvgrab) told us no way to have new firewire stack working with these tools in a short time. maybe consider to wait to implement the new firewire stack or, at least give an alternative (as, for example 2.6.22-rt ubuntu)? Gonna think to about it.. thx!!! > On Wed, Nov 21, 2007 at 01:29:37PM +, Valentina Messeri wrote: > > as reported from HS (and a few more) not including raw1394 in pre-compiled > > kernel causes bad problems to firewire users.the only answer from > > debian-kernel seems to be "compile your own kernel" which is quite funny, > for a > > normal user. > > > > Any idea about debian policy and/or alternative solutions? > > > > raw1394 and 2.6.22 in testing > > 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".
