Hi Mark, This is actually my mythtv server, and the goal is to use firewire for the interface to a pair of digital set top boxes I have. I've also tried an external hard drive, and an ipod; the results are all the same. Shouldn't I at least be seeing both hostadapters when I run plugreport? I'll read up a bit on sbp2 and raw. For the output I've included below, did you happen to notice anything else I should be concerned with? At what point do I make the decision to try a different brand of card?

By default I don't think raw1394 ever loads anymore. As far as I know it's only used for testing apps, etc., so unless you have a specific need I don't think most folks use it. What sort of devices do you want to attach? For disk drives, CDs, DVDs, etc., you'll need OHCI and sbp2. For multimedia stuff, cameras, etc., you probably need dv1394.
