Thanks Ann for the response. My firewire card is detected too and
the firewire modules are all loaded (as far as i can say so after i
did a Google search on this). When i attach a firewire hard drive, i
think it is also even detected because i see a new device under
unknown devices. That´s it! Mandrake does not define it as a new hard
drive! It is not seen then! I did a google search and found out later
that i am having the very same error that some others have had with
this Belkin card, and those people were hackers, geeks who happen to
mention the problem but they do not give any solution for it! So i
guess, i can´t find any solution for the problem.
So i think seeing the firewire and loading the modules does not mean
it will work!! It really has to be checked with real firewire device.
I will write here the error i get soon, maybe somebody here knows how
to solve the problem though this is not my main problem as i can
connect this hard drive via USB when i am in Linux. The important
thing is that i want my video capturing device work under Linux. I
know that this device works under Linux since it is a hardware
capturing device not software and people have used it under Linux
without any problem.

What messages show up in the log when you plug in the drive? It could be
that the drive is detected, but is not getting auto-mounted. I am not
sure how well the auto-mount code in HAL on 2005LE works with Firewire
drives.

I login as root and enter the command /var/log/messages
This is the outcome!
bash: /var/log/messages: Permission denie
I change the permissions by
chmod a+rw /var/log/messages
I still get permission denied?!
Use "tail -f /var/log/messages" without the quotes and "Ctrl C" to stop it, if
need be.
"tail" is the command as would be "less" or "cat"..."/var/log/messages" is the
file you want to read.
Here is what it says after i plug in the hard drive into a firewire port:
