(i mean, the best gentoo way) I've talked to some of the 1394 developers as well as posting something along these lines in Gentoo's Bugzilla. The most appropriate thing to do for this problem, if you want a udev solution, is to wait for 2.6.12, presuming this won't cause other problems for you like it may for me. (ati, ati, ati...) If you wanted a possible solution now then you might also try using the commands above (I've not checked them but they look about right.) and also use the tarball option in conf.d/rc.

I've noticed other threads talking about acceleration problems, or possibly no TV out, etc. Both of these matter to me. Thanks, Mark -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
