Hi All,

I haven't tested the new kernel, but *I think* when I did the last 
install, I had to modprobe the raw1394 module. To do this, I had to 
install modconf first. I know that I had to do that for at least one of 
the firewire modules, but I can't remember off hand which it was. Is 
there a new module for the new kernel?

Take care,
