Previously when I ran Suse 9.0 I disabled my firewire in the YAST /etc/sysconfig editor. (My firewire card in my Toshiba 5205-S705 laptop was causing a conflict with my sound card) Well after I found that both were trying to use IRQ 10 I just disabled it in YAST and my sound started working.

Well now I have installed Suse 9.1 pro and guess what. I can not find anywhere to disable my firewire card in YAST /etc/sysconfig editor. The option I previously had in 9.0 is no longer in 9.1 The format has changed a little as well in the /etc/sysconfig as well. It may be listed another way but I cant find it. I have did searchs for ieee1394 and ohci1394 within the editor but nothing came up that I could disable it from loading. So any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

ieee1394 and ohci1394 sound like drivers to me. How about trying to take a look at /etc/modules

That is what I searched for with no results. I did not see anything in /etc/modules.conf
Any other ideas? Thanks for your help.

How about the runlevel editor in yast?

Could you not just disable the Card in the BIOS?

Thanks for the replys.
No, my laptop uses ACPI.

I dont have an option specifically for firewire, ieee1394 or ohci1394. I did not think of the runlevel editor, so I did learn something new. It just didnt fix my problem.

Any other ideas. Thanks guys.

Got it. I added it to the hotplug black list and walla, no more ohci1934 errors.
