I confirm that Ricoh chipset doesn't work for me and my presonus Firebox.

chipsets.
lspci | grep 1394
My R51 says:
02:00.2 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Texas Instruments: Unknown device 802a
Would that work ?
Texas Instruments chipsets should work fine. VIA chipsets should also
work fine. I've seen vendors that recommend not to use NEC chipset, but
I have a NEC based cardbus card that works fine for me.
Note that this Ricoh thing is not something Linux specific... search the
digidesign or presonus forums for ricoh and you'll see that it's a
common problem.
Maybe we (=FFADO) should also build a chipset database....
