[Bug 981936] Re: 1217:00f7 Firewire prevents booting

 

Sten Bennetsen, 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>

If reproducible, could you also 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-v3.13-rc5

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:
  1217:00f7 Firewire prevents booting

Status in The Linux Kernel:
  Confirmed
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  When trying to boot using kernel 3.2.x kernel the screen just goes blank and harddisk IO stops.
  Removing the quiet and splash options in combination with nomodeset seems to reveal
  that the booting stops due to an error in setting the firewire's power levels (see attachment)
  Kernel 3.0.x work fine.

  ps
  The system was updgraded from 11.10 -> 12.04 beta 2

  WORKAROUND: Disable the firewire module from loading during boot.

  edit:
     /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-firewire.conf

  uncommented the line:
     blacklist firewire-ohci

  Run:
     sudo update-initramfs -k all -u
