Ok getting closer and closer (pheeew)
first i did lsmod it showed me nothing about ieee... then i inserted the
drivers
insmod /lib/modules/2.4.3-20mdk/kernel/drivers/ieee1394/ieee1394.o.gz
and
insmod /lib/modules/2.4.3-20mdk/kernel/drivers/ieee1394/raw1394.o.gz
the other two drivers from the same dir didnt work (so i hope they are not
needed =) )
now lsmod gives me this :
# lsmod
Module Size Used by
raw1394 6544 0 (unused)
ieee1394 20144 0 [raw1394]
nls_cp437 4352 1 (autoclean)
sr_mod 13952 1 (autoclean)
isofs 17808 1 (autoclean)
NVdriver 659808 15 (autoclean)
-
-
- and so on
But the device isnt there i think on epoint i still didnt get driver ok i can
follow ... but the device mmm dont i have to tell wich device this driver is
meant for
ough sounds like im a real newbie =) well i am =)

I wish you would say "reboot and it will be there ...!"
