Firewire and FC3 woes

[Kevin Old]

Hello everyone,

I've searched the archives and found several "solutions" to problems
with FC3 and Firewire, but I've tried them and they don't seem to
work.


First, have a laptop, Toshiba Satellite Pro 4600, running FC3.  I have
a PCMCIA firewire card.

lspci produces:
0b:00.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394): NEC Corporation uPD72874 IEEE1394 OHCI
1.1 3-port PHY-Link Ctrlr (rev ff)

/var/log/messages says:

Apr 17 00:39:48 localhost kernel: PCI: Enabling device 0000:0b:00.0
(0000 -> 0002)
Apr 17 00:39:48 localhost kernel: ohci1394: fw-host0: Unexpected PCI
resource length of 1000!
Apr 17 00:39:48 localhost kernel: ohci1394: fw-host0: OHCI-1394 1.1
(PCI): IRQ=[11]  MMIO=[11800000-118007ff]  Max Packet=[2048]

I'm trying to use a combo USB 2.0/Firewire external hard drive.

I've followed these instructions on solving this, but neither help:

Any help is appreciated!

Thanks,
