Hi,

 

I have a Texas Instruments firewire card which I can't get working on my Hackintosh. I'm looking for a developer / hacker to get this working and will pay you if you succeed. Please PM me if interested.

Your kernel version and system.kext version should be the same........even for Firewire not just USB.......see this thread for Mysticus C*'s USB Mount Fix v1.3....... :D

It is not even detected, though it is listed if I do lspci.

 

04:01.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Texas Instruments TSB82AA2 IEEE-1394b Link Layer Controller (rev 01) (prog-if 10 [OHCI])

Region 1: Memory at eebf8000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable)

The kernel version and system.kext are the same.

 

dmesg shows:

 

FireWire (OHCI): start - unable to get device memory

It is not even detected, though it is listed if I do lspci.

Does OS X recognise and work with the onboard EE 1394a interface?.......could the two be conflicting because your Firewire card is (I guess?) a Firewire 800 having the Texas Instruments TSB82AA2 64-bit PCI host controller.......does disabling onboard Firewire in BIOS make a difference?

Hi - thanks for the reply. I bought the card because the onboard ports were also not recognised. The card is this one:

 

http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?Module...=14&doy=5m8

 

It has a 1394a port too and it says osx is supported. I get the same behaviour whether the bios option for the Agere (onboard) chip is enabled or not. I also reset the CMOS on the motherboard just in case, have tried new BIOS version etc.

This is a strange one because others in the forum apparently have the same 1394b chipset based Firewire card running OK.....see here.......does the card work with Windows XP OK?

I dont know. I dont have a windows install to test and I dont fancy installing it just to see if the firewire card works to be honest.

 

See if it works on Linux partition assuming Linux driver available for that chipset...... :D

hi,

 

it appears in device manager in ubuntu. dmesg shows:

do you think these are similar / related errors?

 

I have no other way of testing the card as the firewire device I want to use is an m-audio firewire 410 and there's no linux driver. i'm beginning to suspect that the motherboard might be faulty but have no real way of knowing.

Not sure about that......as others have reported the same "...EEPROM has suspicious values, attempting to set max_packet_size to 512 bytes" error under Ubuntu for example......so on this basis it is difficult to say if the card is faulty or the MOBO or that the problem lies elsewhere......this may be a stupid question but have you installed the latest M-Audio Firewire 410 driver.....there different versions for each OS 10.5.x update..... :(

yes - i have installed the one for 10.5.4.

 

In this case all I can suggest is if you can do so, is to try the Firewire card in different PCI slots.......it may be some form of device memory conflict........sorry I cannot be of more help...... :(
