Public bug reported: I plug in a firewire drive (a Western Digital MyBook Premium); nothing happens.
If I have udevmonitor running, no messages appear, whilst I get a screed of messages if I plug or unplug my USB card reader. The drive doesn't seem to be physically dead (it makes a happy whirring noise and the blue light at the front comes on), but the machine's behaving as if I don't have firewire at all. This is an Intel DG965 board. lspci says 06:03.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Texas Instruments TSB43AB22/A IEEE-1394a-2000 Controller (PHY/Link) dmesg | grep 1394 says [ 31.205094] ieee1394: Initialized config rom entry `ip1394' [ 33.366729] ohci1394: fw-host0: OHCI-1394 1.1 (PCI): IRQ=[19] MMIO=[e0004000-e00047ff] Max Packet=[2048] IR/IT contexts=[4/8] [ 34.638121] ieee1394: Host added: ID:BUS[0-00:1023] GUID[0090270001b8faaa] I'm not sure what to do next. ** Affects: Ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- Firewire drive not detected https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/105317 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
