I'm running Knoppix (various versions, up to 3.1 1/1/2003) from CD on a machine with one internal HDD and an external one (in a Firewire/USB 1.1 enclosure) connected through Firewire. It seems the Orange Micro Firewire/USB2.0 PCI host card I'm using isn't recognized, as the drive never pops up under Knoppix, in contrast to the internal IDE HDD. I could try connecting the external drive via the mainboard USB 1.1 or 2.0 ports on the Orange Micro card of course, but will never get decent throughput as firewire is the only fast connection I've got on the external drive enclosure. Any data on available/missing firewire host card drivers in Knoppix. and what to do about that?

thanks,
