[Bug 870250] Re: Problem with external firewire disk and new firewire stack in Kubuntu 11.04 and 11.10 beta2

 

cldde, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any
activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If
so, could you please test for this with the latest development release
of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com
/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.12

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

Title:
  Problem with external firewire disk and new firewire stack in Kubuntu
  11.04 and 11.10 beta2

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  When I connect my firewire harddisk and switch it on, Kubuntu 11.04
  does not recognize it. /var/log/syslog shows these error messages:

  [ 2605.289475] firewire_ohci: node ID not valid, new bus reset in progress
  [ 2614.797413] firewire_core: skipped bus generations, destroying all nodes
  [ 2614.797434] firewire_core: Parent port inconsistency for node 0: parent_count=1
  [ 2614.797440] firewire_core: topology build failed

  When I then reboot the computer with a live CD of Kubuntu 10.04, the
  drive works as expected. (Is detected on connection and can be mounted
  and used via KDE device manager.)

  When I then reboot the computer again and boot into the installed
  Kubuntu 11.04 again, the drive then is also recognized here, too and
  can be mounted and used normally. Seems to me to be some hardware
  initialization issue. (When the hardware is initialized correctly by
  the old firewire stack in Kubuntu 10.04 then it also works in 11.04
  afterwards).
