In which way does hot-plug of the card not work? Doesn't it appear in lspci? Or does it, but ohci1394 or firewire-ohci is unable to initialize the card? (Have a look in dmesg and in /sys/bus/{ieee1394,firewire}/devices/.) If it doesn't appear in lspci, make sure that you got the pciehp driver. If that one is built modular, also try it statically built into the kernel. Also try the acpihp driver. (Disclaimer: I don't know what I'm talking about. I know FireWire but not PCIe.) It doesnt appear in lspci ........ tho, correction, it does now after loading acpiphp, so, i guess problem solved. Cheers, just need some magic to load raw1394 automagically and give it the rights privs :) Good; I change bug status to what comes closest to not-a-bug. raw1394 is auto-loaded if AV/C devices (camcorders, tape decks, audio devices...) or IIDC devices (industrial cameras and webcams) are plugged into the FireWire bus. Permission and ownership (or ACLs) of /dev/raw1394 can be controlled by /etc/udev/rules.d/*.rules. Their defaults as distributed should just work; if they don't, file a bug at your distributor for the udev package. |
