Hard to tell (except that it /should/ work), the linux firewire drivers suck and at the end of 2005 their hotplug support is still terrible.
Please get a clean events log of a plug event. It's better if you do it just after a reboot when no firewire devices were plugged yet. Uncomment logger.agent in hotplug.rules and then: EVENTS_LOG='/dev/hotplug.log' >> /etc/default/hotplug I highly suspect a problem with my workaround for kernel brokeness: SUBSYSTEM=="ieee1394", ENV{MODALIAS}!="?*", \ IMPORT{program}="/lib/hotplug/modalias_ieee1394" Please also report the output of: grep ieee1394: /lib/modules/2.6.13/modules.alias and: modinfo $(find /lib/modules/2.6.13/ -name sbp2.ko) -- ciao, Marco
