firewire 400 and FC7

[michael]

I've just tried to connect my LaCie disk up to my Fedora box (Intel Duo2
Core):

	$ uname -a Linux veri.phy.umist.ac.uk 2.6.22.4-65.fc7 #1 SMP Tue Aug 21
21:50:50 EDT 2007 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

but it's not happy with the Firewire 400 connect. All I can see of
relevance in /var/log/messages is:

	Oct  3 14:49:37 veri kernel: firewire_core: giving up on config rom for
node id ffc0

Looking about I see that there's been some issues re Firewire and FC7
but does anybody know if it's been fixed or how I can use my LaCie box?

Thanks, M
