I've tried both linux and mac os x, and I can connect to my firepod, but as soon as I try to use it they both crash. I've tested this firepod and card on my friend's macbook pro, and it works fine. I'm wondering if my S10's PCI-E chipset is borked? Also, when I boot up the machine with the card installed (the only way to get it to recognize anything in that slot) the WIFI card gets disabled (though it still shows up under linux and mac as an installed device, it seems to have no power) The card I'm using was manufactured by BYTECC, it's Firewire 800 and has a TI-based Firewire chip behind a PCIe to PCI bridge.

The one I saw in a store had not. Have you got informations on this ? second, I own a TC electronic konnect 24D firewire audio interface for doing direct multitraks recording (4 tracks) trough reaper. do you think it's possible to do this with this netbook (with or without the intégated firewire interface). Someone has do it? Bruno from France Regards Hi everybody,
