Ok, have the drivers installed via README from
http://www.ic.unicamp.br/~oliva/snapshots/FC2-firewire/0README Section 2.1
However, rebooting this kernel 2.6.6-1.403 and running modprobe ohci1394
and sbp2 (mind you it's detected at kernel boot), and
running sh ./rescan-scsi-bus.sh changes absolutely nothing. My external
Firewire BUSLink 48x12x48 drive is still not detected.
lsmod shows:
sbp2 18184 0
ohci1394 26392 0
ieee1394 278964 2 sbp2,ohci1394
and lspci -v shows:
02:09.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Texas Instruments TSB12LV26 IEEE-1394
Controller (Link) (prog-if 10 [OHCI])
Subsystem: Procomp Informatics Ltd: Unknown device 8010
Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 11
Memory at feafb800 (32-bit, non-prefetchable)
Memory at feaf4000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K]
Capabilities: [44] Power Management version 1
However I can go back to my good old kernel 2.6.1-1.65smp and my
Firewire drive is detected under Xcdroast-0.98alpha15-2 and works even. :)
I'm afraid we're still looking for some patch upstream maybe by kernel
2.6.7 or 2.6.8 or something like 2.7 or maybe never :)
