I do not currently use firewire with FreeBSD. There is not, to my knowledge, a mature driver available. In fact, there really isn't even an immature driver... If you search on freshmeat.net, I think you will find some projects for linux drivers ... perhaps on sourceforge as well. Linux may not even have mature firewire drivers yet. ----- John Kozubik - john@ozubik.com - http://www.kozubik.com On Mon, 4 Mar 2002, Peter Leftwich wrote: > > I still own zero (0) firewire devices but one (1) firewire card that was > given to me by a friend, and was the major impetus that prompted me to > completely break from the tyranny of M$FT WinBlows 98 SR1 and head into > FreeBSD 4.3 CDROM country... my question is: What is the driver you use > for firewire?
