Description of problem: Firewire driver does not recognize a firewire card with an ALi M5253 chip Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): all released Fedora 11 kernels How reproducible: Fully reproducible Steps to Reproduce: Plug in firewire card. Messages in /var/log/messages indicate that the local node /dev/fw0 is created but not the remote node /dev/fw1. Thus firewire-dependent programs like kino or dvgrab do not work: they do not find any firewire device. This bug is probably related to kernel bug: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10935 Additional info: Here is my /var/log/messages: Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: pcmcia_socket pcmcia_socket0: pccard: CardBus card inserted into slot 0 Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: pci 0000:03:00.0: PME# supported from D0 D1 D3hot D3cold Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: pci 0000:03:00.0: PME# disabled Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: pci 0000:03:00.1: PME# supported from D0 D1 D3hot D3cold Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: pci 0000:03:00.1: PME# disabled Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: pci 0000:03:00.3: PME# supported from D0 D3hot D3cold Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: pci 0000:03:00.3: PME# disabled Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: pci 0000:03:00.4: PME# supported from D1 D2 D3hot Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: pci 0000:03:00.4: PME# disabled Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: ohci_hcd 0000:03:00.0: enabling device (0000 -> 0002) Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: ohci_hcd 0000:03:00.0: PCI INT B -> Link[LNKA] -> GSI 11 (level, low) -> IRQ 11 Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: ohci_hcd 0000:03:00.0: OHCI Host Controller Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: ohci_hcd 0000:03:00.0: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 5 Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: ohci_hcd 0000:03:00.0: irq 11, io mem 0xc4000000 Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: usb usb5: New USB device found, idVendor=1d6b, idProduct=0001 Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: usb usb5: New USB device strings: Mfr=3, Product=2, SerialNumber=1 Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: usb usb5: Product: OHCI Host Controller Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: usb usb5: Manufacturer: Linux 2.6.30.10-105.2.23.fc11.i586 ohci_hcd Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: usb usb5: SerialNumber: 0000:03:00.0 Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: usb usb5: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: hub 5-0:1.0: USB hub found Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: hub 5-0:1.0: 2 ports detected Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: ohci_hcd 0000:03:00.1: enabling device (0000 -> 0002) Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: ohci_hcd 0000:03:00.1: PCI INT B -> Link[LNKA] -> GSI 11 (level, low) -> IRQ 11 Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: ohci_hcd 0000:03:00.1: OHCI Host Controller Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: ohci_hcd 0000:03:00.1: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 6 Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: ohci_hcd 0000:03:00.1: irq 11, io mem 0xc4001000 Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: usb usb6: New USB device found, idVendor=1d6b, idProduct=0001 Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: usb usb6: New USB device strings: Mfr=3, Product=2, SerialNumber=1 Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: usb usb6: Product: OHCI Host Controller Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: usb usb6: Manufacturer: Linux 2.6.30.10-105.2.23.fc11.i586 ohci_hcd Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: usb usb6: SerialNumber: 0000:03:00.1 Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: usb usb6: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: hub 6-0:1.0: USB hub found Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: hub 6-0:1.0: 2 ports detected Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: ehci_hcd 0000:03:00.3: enabling device (0000 -> 0002) Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: ehci_hcd 0000:03:00.3: PCI INT A -> Link[LNKA] -> GSI 11 (level, low) -> IRQ 11 Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: ehci_hcd 0000:03:00.3: EHCI Host Controller Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: ehci_hcd 0000:03:00.3: new USB bus registered, assigned bus number 7 Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: ehci_hcd 0000:03:00.3: debug port 1 Mar 28 16:12:08 mycomp kernel: ehci_hcd 0000:03:00.3: irq 11, io mem 0xc4002800 Mar 28 16:12:09 mycomp kernel: ehci_hcd 0000:03:00.3: USB 2.0 started, EHCI 1.00 Mar 28 16:12:09 mycomp kernel: usb usb7: New USB device found, idVendor=1d6b, idProduct=0002 Mar 28 16:12:09 mycomp kernel: usb usb7: New USB device strings: Mfr=3, Product=2, SerialNumber=1 Mar 28 16:12:09 mycomp kernel: usb usb7: Product: EHCI Host Controller Mar 28 16:12:09 mycomp kernel: usb usb7: Manufacturer: Linux 2.6.30.10-105.2.23.fc11.i586 ehci_hcd Mar 28 16:12:09 mycomp kernel: usb usb7: SerialNumber: 0000:03:00.3 Mar 28 16:12:09 mycomp kernel: usb usb7: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice Mar 28 16:12:09 mycomp kernel: hub 7-0:1.0: USB hub found Mar 28 16:12:09 mycomp kernel: hub 7-0:1.0: 6 ports detected Mar 28 16:12:09 mycomp kernel: firewire_ohci 0000:03:00.4: enabling device (0000 -> 0002) Mar 28 16:12:09 mycomp kernel: firewire_ohci 0000:03:00.4: PCI INT C -> Link[LNKA] -> GSI 11 (level, low) -> IRQ 11 Mar 28 16:12:09 mycomp kernel: firewire_ohci: Added fw-ohci device 0000:03:00.4, OHCI version 1.10 Mar 28 16:12:09 mycomp kernel: firewire_core: BM lock failed, making local node (ffc0) root.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 11 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 11. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '11'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 11's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 11 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
upstream bug is still unresolved
Fedora 11 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2010-06-25. Fedora 11 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
