All kinds of errors on plugreport. I have no idea what this means:

 [root at magic sysconfig]# plugreport
Host Adapter 0
==============

Node 0 GUID 0x0016920e8a980000
------------------------------
oMPR n_plugs=1, data_rate=2, bcast_channel=63
oPCR[0] online=1, bcast_connection=0, n_p2p_connections=0
        channel=0, data_rate=1, overhead_id=0, payload=146
iMPR n_plugs=0, data_rate=2

Node 1 GUID 0x00110666000000b8
------------------------------
libiec61883 error: error reading oMPR
libiec61883 error: error reading iMPR

And here's my lsmod:

[root at magic sysconfig]# lsmod | grep 1394
raw1394                31161  2
dv1394                 22553  0
ohci1394               36977  2 dv1394
