Stefan Richter | fe77d4f | 2007-06-25 22:18:40 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 11 | This is the "Juju" FireWire stack, a new alternative implementation |
Stefan Richter | 227e7d8 | 2007-01-07 22:33:59 +0100 | [diff] [blame] | 12 | designed for robustness and simplicity. You can build either this |
| 13 | stack, or the classic stack (the ieee1394 driver, ohci1394 etc.) |
| 14 | or both. |

Stefan Richter | fe77d4f | 2007-06-25 22:18:40 +0200 | [diff] [blame] | 16 | To compile this driver as a module, say M here: the module will be |
| 17 | called firewire-core. It functionally replaces ieee1394, raw1394, |
| 18 | and video1394. |
| 19 | |
| 20 | NOTE: |
| 21 | |
| 22 | You should only build ONE of the stacks, unless you REALLY know what |
| 23 | you are doing. If you install both, you should configure them only as |
| 24 | modules rather than link them statically, and you should blacklist one |
| 25 | of the concurrent low-level drivers in /etc/modprobe.conf. Add either |
| 26 | |
| 27 | blacklist firewire-ohci |
| 28 | or |
| 29 | blacklist ohci1394 |
| 30 | |
| 31 | there depending on which driver you DON'T want to have auto-loaded. |
| 32 | You can optionally do the same with the other IEEE 1394/ FireWire |
| 33 | drivers. |
| 34 | |
| 35 | If you have an old modprobe which doesn't implement the blacklist |
| 36 | directive, use either |
| 37 | |
| 38 | install firewire-ohci /bin/true |
| 39 | or |
| 40 | install ohci1394 /bin/true |
| 41 | |
| 42 | and so on, depending on which modules you DON't want to have |
| 43 | auto-loaded. |
