comment "An alternative FireWire stack is available with EXPERIMENTAL=y" depends on EXPERIMENTAL=n config FIREWIRE tristate "IEEE 1394 (FireWire) support - alternative stack, EXPERIMENTAL" depends on EXPERIMENTAL select CRC_ITU_T help This is the "Juju" FireWire stack, a new alternative implementation designed for robustness and simplicity. You can build either this stack, or the classic stack (the ieee1394 driver, ohci1394 etc.) or both. Please read http://wiki.linux1394.org/JujuMigration before you enable the new stack. To compile this driver as a module, say M here: the module will be called firewire-core. It functionally replaces ieee1394, raw1394, and video1394. NOTE: You should only build ONE of the stacks, unless you REALLY know what you are doing. config FIREWIRE_OHCI tristate "Support for OHCI FireWire host controllers" depends on PCI && FIREWIRE help Enable this driver if you have a FireWire controller based on the OHCI specification. For all practical purposes, this is the only chipset in use, so say Y here. To compile this driver as a module, say M here: The module will be called firewire-ohci. It replaces ohci1394 of the classic IEEE 1394 stack. NOTE: You should only build ohci1394 or firewire-ohci, but not both. If you nevertheless want to install both, you should configure them only as modules and blacklist the driver(s) which you don't want to have auto-loaded. Add either blacklist firewire-ohci or blacklist ohci1394 blacklist video1394 blacklist dv1394 to /etc/modprobe.conf or /etc/modprobe.d/* and update modprobe.conf depending on your distribution. The latter two modules should be blacklisted together with ohci1394 because they depend on ohci1394. If you have an old modprobe which doesn't implement the blacklist directive, use "install modulename /bin/true" for the modules to be blacklisted. config FIREWIRE_OHCI_DEBUG bool depends on FIREWIRE_OHCI default y config FIREWIRE_SBP2 tristate "Support for storage devices (SBP-2 protocol driver)" depends on FIREWIRE && SCSI help This option enables you to use SBP-2 devices connected to a FireWire bus. SBP-2 devices include storage devices like harddisks and DVD drives, also some other FireWire devices like scanners. To compile this driver as a module, say M here: The module will be called firewire-sbp2. It replaces sbp2 of the classic IEEE 1394 stack. You should also enable support for disks, CD-ROMs, etc. in the SCSI configuration section.
