[LAU] freebob and fedora 9 CCRMA

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello, I have a multitude of issues with freebob on several computers/distros. Here I only want to ask for help with FC9 plus CCRMA: I have a VIA-FW-Controller on a PCI-Card in a AMD64-box. Connecting my Presonus Firebox to this sometimes works flawlessly and I had sessions for several hours in 64Studio 2.1 on this box. But alas: in 4 out of 5 cases the box does not invoke the ieee1395: raw1394 raw device initialisation. tail -f /var/log/messages shows up stuff like "recieved ... during reset ignoring" and does nothing. On FC9 with CCRMA-Kernel the best it does is: "Error parsing configrom for node 0-00:1023" Then I get the beloved message: "ieee1394: raw1394: /dev/raw1394 device initialized" BUT: only /dev/raw1394 exists, ieee1394 does not. Thus jackd dies as freebob tries to initialize the driver backend. I noticed also, that a dv1394 Device is created, which I have not seen for some time now... Please consider to unlist the following causes for that: 1.) permissions: all is set properly I have good success with the same setup in 64Studio 2.) presonus-trouble: the box works OK (see above) I tried it both host-powered and with the power-supply attached to the box... Waht really makes me nervous is, that the VIA-Controller I use is named second-best next to TI-chips on the FFado-page whereas a O2 Micro I use with acceptable success on my notebook is branded as worst of the barely working (this chip *never* failed to initialize the firebox at least...) So what can I do? I have a recommended FW-Controller and a working interface but FC9 still fails me ... :( best regards HZN
