Building it was fine. I got a card from CompUSA (yuck!) which uses a
slightly different version of the Lynx chipset (TSB12LV23), so I may need
a few tiny changes.

I think that's an excellent idea.

I'd be happy to help you get the code merged and also help with testing
etc. To begin with, can you recommend (or warn against) any particular
DV hardware? I need at least one working peripheral (I have a 1394 disk
device for later, right now I just want something that can show me the
adapter working).
Once I have the necessary hardware, I can spend a little time looking
over your code and then we can get things resolved. I'm terribly sorry
it's taken me so long to get to this point.
Regards,
Mike
