Working Firewire in FC2?

Guy,

There is an issue with this and I believe Kudzu. When we create a custom
Kernel to enable Firewire support (Which I believe we shouldn't have to in a
released version) the hardware detection hangs on reboot. 

I was going to try to research this some more, but seeing as the final
release is only days away, I thought I would wait. But curiosity got the
best of me, so I asked the question, hoping someone with a little more
inside information would be able to tell me if it was worth the wait.

What is the problem, the firewire on my ASUS P4PE mother board
and the firewire on my ATI AIW 8500DV both detect and drivers
have loaded since RHL 9. I have never had a firewire device to
plug in, so I have no way of knowing if it actualy works or not.

Do your drivers not load, or do the apps not work?
