There should probably be a mail list for 1394 (and USB for that matter)
as this is the kernel mail list.

I will respond to your query though.

If the information is correct and the card is OHCI (not the same as USB
OHCI), then it should work just fine. OHCI is a standard interface to
the 1394 link chip. If you plug that card into a Mac or Windose box, it
would be recognized as such and the drivers loaded. The same holds true
for Linux.
