If you have an opportunity to test it with your Firewire hard drives and cameras I'd really appreciate it. Stuff that's changed: multi-speed compatible devices will acutally work. a 400/800 device is connected to a 400/800 compatible firewire card via a 400 connection will work at 400 fwcontrol understands multiple firewire cards as multiple buses now. most commands now take a -u argument to indicate the bus. Please report to the -firewire if you get a chance to test. It would be great to get positive as well as negative results. Sean
