After 10.5.8: No Firewire Ports Can Be Detected

[pdana]

Hi There, i've been having this problem since I updated to 10.5.8. I've been reading a lot of posts regarding this issue but this far no solution has helped... On the same computer I have another partition with 10.5.6, and it works perfectly fine. On my 10.5.8 partition, "No firewire ports can be detected". Motherboard: Intel DG31PR Sound Card: NVidia XFX 8600GT Any ideas on how to fix this? Thanks a lot, Pablo.

I can't solve it but my 10.5.x found my FW ports fine, 10.6.x I need the right DSDT.aml file or it either doesn't find them at all or doesn't initialise them.

Hi there... finally solved it by upgrading Chameleon to 2.0 RC2... I tried out RC3 and RC4 and it didn't work, but RC2 did the trick just fine. Now everything is working perfectly fine... I can't be sure whether just the upgrade of Chameleon did the trick, or if it was all the other stuff I tried before that (replacing 10.5.8 kexts with 10.5.6, etc) PLUS the Chameleon upgrade... but it's worth the try.

 

Cheers.
