I've been having very good success with the CVS versions at linux1394.sf.net though. Only problems I've been having are with leaving the kernel modules loaded (no 1394 hardware left installed though) during a laptop suspend.. keyboard wasn't working on resume. The disk and dvd+rw drive i have have worked flawlessly with the sbp2 driver though. And they do appear as normal scsi devices (they're announced when the sbp2 driver loads, if you insert something later or remove something, you have to do the scsi-add-single-device trick to rescan devices). -- Gerald - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
