Hi! Looks like the old stack is back again in the Debian kernel. Good so far for all the old tools.
Nevertheless, we need to start at some (hopefully) near point in the future and find out what breaks with the new stack, which means switching to libraw1394-2.0.x, first. Stefan Richter and me have fixed a crash in libraw1394-2.0.0's ARM code. libraw1394-2.0.0 claims to be transparently backward compatible with the old stack, the one which was just re-enabled. So I don't see why not to update libraw1394. Let me point out that backward compatibility doesn't work perfectly on new stacks right now. In theory, programs using the old libraw1394 API should be able to compile and run with libraw1394-2.0.0 on both, old and new stack, but currently the lib lacks larger testing on new stacks. Next week, libraw1394-2.0.1 is expected to be released, including all the fixes we have so far. Note that Juju still doesn't support everything we had on the old stack, especially when talking about ISO streaming. I could imagine a new Debian package for libraw1394, once version 2.0.1 will be available. We would then hopefully don't see any problems on the old stack (current Debian kernel) and probably tons of bug reports with Juju ;) I think it's crucial to have these reports ASAP, so we have time to fix libraw1394, Juju and whatever else is breaking before Juju gets wider usage (perhaps around 2.6.29). We'd also need some more system integration, perhaps the Fedora way?: http://ieee1394.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Juju_Migration#Permissions_and_ownership_for_.2Fdev.2Ffw.2A In other words: a lot to do. ;) Cheerio -- mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://adi.thur.de PGP/GPG: key via keyserver -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
