Just when you wrote it occured to me that I should try downgrading since 
I'm on 6.0-BETA4. I looked at the time stamps of the code and it appears 
that changes has been applied to fwdev.c in august.

I hope that works, otherwise I'd try going futher back in time, changes 
were applied to fwcontrol.c and fwohci_pci.c in may. And if I still have 
no luck, back to march.

I'm a bit currious: Looking at 5.4 STABLE all files in sys/dev/firewire
have timestamp 2005/01/30 but in 6.0-BETA4 files have timestamp 
2005/01/06 or some other date... Any explanation for this?

Well, going back in time on this will be my weekend project...

Thanks for replying!

Cheers, Erik
