Dear all,

        I'd like to get a Firewire card for use with Linux
        (specifically, to connect my iPod to my x86 Desktop, for
        chaging its song list and using it as a method for backups).

        But the problem is that I don't know which card I could
        purchase for my x86 computer that has good support with Open
        Source drivers and that can carry power to the iPod (for
        charging the battery).

        Surfing http://www.linux1394.org/cgi-bin/hcl.cgi?class_id=2
        still leaves me questions on what to get or not.  I would like
        to stress that I don't care much for performance as I care for
        compatibility with Linux and price. :-)

        So, I would be grateful if anybody could help me with
        recommendations on which cards to get and which ones to avoid.


        Thank you very much for any help, Roger...
