Stefan Richter | fe77d4f | 2007-06-25 22:18:40 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 12 | This is the "Juju" FireWire stack, a new alternative implementation |
Stefan Richter | 227e7d8 | 2007-01-07 22:33:59 +0100 | [diff] [blame] | 13 | designed for robustness and simplicity. You can build either this |
Stefan Richter | a7b64b8 | 2008-06-14 14:24:53 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 14 | stack, or the old stack (the ieee1394 driver, ohci1394 etc.) or both. |
| 15 | Please read http://wiki.linux1394.org/JujuMigration before you |
| 16 | enable the new stack. |

| 21 | This module functionally replaces ieee1394, raw1394, and video1394. |
| 22 | To access it from application programs, you generally need at least |
| 23 | libraw1394 version 2. IIDC/DCAM applications also need libdc1394 |
| 24 | version 2. No libraries are required to access storage devices |
| 25 | through the firewire-sbp2 driver. |

Stefan Richter | a7b64b8 | 2008-06-14 14:24:53 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 41 | You should only build either firewire-ohci or the old ohci1394 driver, |
| 42 | but not both. If you nevertheless want to install both, you should |
| 43 | configure them only as modules and blacklist the driver(s) which you |
| 44 | don't want to have auto-loaded. Add either |
Stefan Richter | 0a8da30 | 2008-03-09 00:27:20 +0100 | [diff] [blame] | 45 | |
| 46 | blacklist firewire-ohci |

| 49 | blacklist video1394 |
| 50 | blacklist dv1394 |
| 51 | |
| 52 | to /etc/modprobe.conf or /etc/modprobe.d/* and update modprobe.conf |
| 53 | depending on your distribution. The latter two modules should be |
| 54 | blacklisted together with ohci1394 because they depend on ohci1394. |
| 55 | |
| 56 | If you have an old modprobe which doesn't implement the blacklist |
| 57 | directive, use "install modulename /bin/true" for the modules to be |
| 58 | blacklisted. |
