[Bug 329277] Re: ieee1394 port not recognized

Thu Feb 19 21:37:19 UTC 2009

How does "lspci -v" show the controller?  The PCI IDs look like from the
Texas Instruments TSB43AB** family.

The messages
        ohci1394: fw-host0: Get PHY Reg timeout [0x00000000/0x00000000/100]
indicate that the drivers were unable to perform the last steps of initialization.  For now I don't know why.

What if you load the new alternative drivers instead of the old ones?  According to your lspci, the new ones are installed in parallel already.  The new drivers were quite buggy in kernel 2.6.24 though.
# modprobe -r ohci1394
# modprobe firewire-ohci
