is this an off the shelf PCIe FireWire card?
Yes.
If so which one?
I don't know the model of the board off the top of my head.
I do know that it uses the Texas Instruments XIO2000A/XIO2200 PCI
Express-to-PCI Bridge (rev 03), with the TSB82AA2 OHCI Link behind the
bridge.
The same board definitely works as expected in a Mac Pro.
In doing some Google searches about this, I have seen the TI part
listed in the PCI configuration of folks running linux (though
probably on Intel) and apparently having no problems with the busses
behind the bridge being enumerated.
I am guessing that the problem is related the the PCIe root complex on
the 8377, but I am just guessing.
Is PCIe known to work on the MPC837x?
Thanks!
