Public bug reported: 12.04 LTS on the Dell XT3. During certification testing, it was observed that the firewire port does not seem to be functioning properly. No messages are generated on insert or remove events with a known working firewire drive.
What more can I say? Firewire, which has worked on other systems with 12.04, is not working on the XT3.
