To give proper credit firescope originally came from Ben Herrenschmidt for PPC. I just ported it to x86 with a few changes. BTW if you like firescope you might also like fireproxy http://www.suse.de/~bk/firewire/ There's also a early ohci1394 driver in there to make firescope/fireproxy work earlier during boot, but it's still somewhat experimental. -Andi - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
