Yeeehaaaa! Guess what =)
yeahyeah i got it working you dont even need to install the drivers.
On that
http://linux1394.sourceforge.net page they give patches that you wont need if
you run MDK8 kernel you have to skip to step 10 first they describe how to
compile the ieee1394 stuff into the kernel but since its included in mdk get
to step 10 and off you go you only need libraw1394 they have a tar on that
page. Thanx for all help that was very teaching . At next ill hack "Echelon"
(just kidding =) ). (linux rules! under windose i got this working after
trying 98 98SE 2000 etc. and it always got messed up again )
Cheers
Compile libraw1394:
cd /where/you/downloaded/libraw1394
tar xvfz libraw1394_0.9.0.tar.gz
cd libraw1394-0.9.0
./configure
make
make install Create the raw device (/dev/raw1394):
make dev Reboot:
shutdown -r now After the system reboots, logon and load the modules:
modprobe ohci1394
modprobe raw1394
Module dependencies should ensure that the ieee1394 subsytem module installs
automatically. If you receive errors about unresolved symbols, then try the
following:
insmod ieee1394
insmod ohci1394M
insmod raw1394
