Firewire audio device support is ready now (for FC6 and beyond).  We're
just waiting for the packages to get pushed out to the Fedora Extras
repositories.

The only trick is that you have to manually load the ieee1394 and
raw1394 kernel modules for it to work.  Isn't there some way this can be
done automatically when I select the FreeBob driver for jack?
