[Bug 981936] Re: 1217:00f7 [TravelMate 8200] Firewire prevents booting

 

I'm in exactly the same situation as Sten Bennetsen.

I've just upgraded the BIOS, but without any change to the firewire
issue.

by the way the "firewire-ohci.blacklist=yes" command doesn't work for me. Instead I have to use 
"blacklist=firewire_ohci"

I confirm the work-around works perfectly.

Thanks!

Title:
  1217:00f7 [TravelMate 8200]  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
