| 18 | This module functionally replaces ieee1394, raw1394, and video1394. |
| 19 | To access it from application programs, you generally need at least |
Stefan Richter | 0c53dec | 2009-06-16 22:36:34 +0200 | [diff] [blame^] | 20 | libraw1394 v2. IIDC/DCAM applications need libdc1394 v2. |
| 21 | No libraries are required to access storage devices through the |
| 22 | firewire-sbp2 driver. |
| 23 | |
| 24 | NOTE: |
| 25 | FireWire audio devices currently require the old drivers (ieee1394, |
| 26 | ohci1394, raw1394). |
