[cooker-amd64] IEEE1394 support & etc.

[Jørgen Erik Assentoft]

Hi,

1. Does RC1 support IEEE1394?? I can't get it to work!? I am trying to
connect a Matrox 250 GBytes external Hardrive via IEEE1394. It is working
under Mandrake 9.1 without any problem.


2. The different test programs is written for 32 bit and therefore I can
not install them because they want another 32-bit library?

3. A general question: How do I handle 32 bits programs under this 64 bits
operating system? 

4. Is there a Mandrake web page where I can see what is included and
tested for the 64-bit system?? 

5. In this group there was a link to a Mandrake web page
(http://people.mandrakesoft.com/~gbeauchesne/x86_64/testing/) with a patch
file( patch-92amd64rc1.pl). I was not able to read what this patch are
doing?? Will it be possible in the future to have a text file which
explain what the different files are doing??

I am using ASUS SK8N motherboard. I can see that OHCI1394 and IEEE1394
(Host added) is loaded without any error messages.
