Rob Allen, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test the latest mainline kernel via http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.13-rc5-trusty/ and advise to the results?
If reproducible, in response to your comment noted in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/981936/comments/34 , the upstream procedure has been completely overhauled as you suggested. Hence, could you please report this problem through the appropriate channel (would check in with linux-pci CC Bjorn Helgaas <[email protected]>, Ram Pai <[email protected]>, and <[email protected]> ) by following the instructions _verbatim_ at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/kernel#KernelTeam.2BAC8-KernelTeamBugPolicies.Overview_on_Reporting_Bugs_Upstream ? Please provide a direct URL to your e-mail to the mailing list once you have made it so that it may be tracked. Thank you for your understanding. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1000197 Title: 1217:00f7 [Acer TravelMate 8200] Firewire prevents booting Status in The Linux Kernel: Confirmed Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: WORKAROUND: edit: /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-firewire.conf uncommented the line: blacklist firewire-ohci Run: sudo update-initramfs -k all -u ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 Package: linux-image-3.2.0-24-generic 3.2.0-24.37 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-24.37-generic 3.2.14 Uname: Linux 3.2.0-24-generic i686 AlsaVersion: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.24.
