I hav e abrand new AMD64 machine with a K8V SE motherboard. It's an amazing motherboard with an 800 Mhz system bus, 5 pci slots, a wifi slot, 2 Ultra ATA 133 connectors, 2 serial ATA connectors, 8 USB 2.0 ports, built-in gigabit, and 2 Firewire ports. I have a bunch of firewire drives. WHen I attach the drives to the motherboard, it gets the bus reset but it usually doesn't create the /dev entries for the drives. I try resetting the bus with the fwcontrol command. That doesn't work either. Here is what is printed on the console: fwohci0: Initiate bus reset fwohci0: BUS reset fwohci0: node_id=0xc800ffc1, gen=2, CYCLEMASTER mode firewire0: 2 nodes, maxhop <= 1, cable IRM = 1 (me) firewire0: bus manager 1 (me) fwohci0: txd err= 3 miss Ack err firewire0: bus_explore node=0 addr=0x400 resp=22 retry=1 fwohci0: txd err= 3 miss Ack err firewire0: bus_explore node=0 addr=0x400 resp=22 retry=2 fwohci0: txd err= 3 miss Ack err firewire0: bus_explore node=0 addr=0x400 resp=22 retry=3 fwohci0: txd err= 3 miss Ack err firewire0: bus_explore node=0 addr=0x400 resp=22 retry=4 firewire0: bus_explore failed for 1 nodes fwohci0: Initiate bus reset fwohci0: BUS reset fwohci0: node_id=0xc800ffc1, gen=3, CYCLEMASTER mode firewire0: 2 nodes, maxhop <= 1, cable IRM = 1 (me) firewire0: bus manager 1 (me) fwohci0: txd err= 3 miss Ack err firewire0: bus_explore node=0 addr=0x400 resp=22 retry=1 fwohci0: txd err= 3 miss Ack err firewire0: bus_explore node=0 addr=0x400 resp=22 retry=2 fwohci0: txd err= 3 miss Ack err firewire0: bus_explore node=0 addr=0x400 resp=22 retry=3 fwohci0: txd err= 3 miss Ack err firewire0: bus_explore node=0 addr=0x400 resp=22 retry=4 firewire0: bus_explore failed for 1 nodes [simsong@r3 ~] 306 % I plug in a standard Firewire card and it works just fine. >How-To-Repeat: Buy this motherboard. Or don't. >Fix: Don't use the on-board firewire. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: State-Changed-From-To: open->closed State-Changed-By: arved State-Changed-When: Tue Jan 17 08:53:28 UTC 2006 State-Changed-Why: Submitter reports problem is gone in 6.x http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=73369 >Unformatted:
