hi all,
i have a firepod 1010 firewire soundcard, i am using linux / jack. the new motherboard doesn't have firewire. what to do?
just yesterday i was searching for some expansion card and discovered a whole bunch of PCI-cards that provide firewire. those were bought when firewire was not yet standard on all motherboards....and i couldn't help thinking (and smiling) that they will become handy soon, as motherboard manufacturers start dropping ieee1394 support again (well, unfortunately those cards are PCI, and newer mobos tend to not have PCI-slots anymore)
so to answer your question: there should be plenty of expansion boards (PCI, PCIe, ...) that give you ieee1394 even if your motherboard does not support it.
