Firewire card suported by Linux?

[Rogério Brito <rbrito@ime.usp.br>]

	Dear all,

	I'd like to get a Firewire card for use with Linux
	(specifically, to connect my iPod to my x86 Desktop, for
	chaging its song list and using it as a method for backups).

	But the problem is that I don't know which card I could
	purchase for my x86 computer that has good support with Open
	Source drivers and that can carry power to the iPod (for
	charging the battery).

	Surfing http://www.linux1394.org/cgi-bin/hcl.cgi?class_id=2
	still leaves me questions on what to get or not.  I would like
	to stress that I don't care much for performance as I care for
	compatibility with Linux and price. :-)

	So, I would be grateful if anybody could help me with
	recommendations on which cards to get and which ones to avoid.


	Thank you very much for any help, Roger...
