+          You should only build either ohci1394 or the new firewire-ohci driver,
+          but not both.  If you nevertheless want to install both, you should
+          configure them only as modules and blacklist the driver(s) which you
+          don't want to have auto-loaded.  Add either
+
+              blacklist firewire-ohci

+          depending on your distribution.  The latter two modules should be
+          blacklisted together with ohci1394 because they depend on ohci1394.
