Hi all,
at http://www.arnoldarts.de/drupal/?q=node/557 I have written down
(part of) my success-story with my new rack featuring a Presonus
Firepod. It works great using the freebob-drivers by P. Palmers & Co.
Thanks guys!
Feel free to ask and have a nice weekend,
Arnold

verhindern könnte, würde ich mir noch heute einen Stapel Brenner und
einen Sack Rohlinge kaufen.

Hi Arnold,
Your setup looks nice. My Firepod sits in a 4U 10.5 inch (26.7 cm) deep
FX/Amp rack, making it a somewhat more compact arrangement. But your
laptop drawer & the extra space for cables at the back seems pretty
handy (plus, that extra space perhaps allows for a little more heat
dissipation, too), so, your setup might be a better choice. Thanks for
the photos & info.
Unfortunately, I'm a little to dumb to get my Firepod working with
Linux. I can't put the pieces together. Under Fedora Core 5/PlanetCCRMA
my Firepod's not even detected. The problem may start earlier in the
chain. I can't even figure out how to tell if my laptop's firewire
adapter card is being detected by FC5, except that popping it in or out
does nothing. It works in WinXP, but that's not what I want to do. I'm
curious, what distro are you running?
I can't even guess what it feels like to have things working correctly.
Any help would be...well, helpful & much appreciated.

To be clear: I will use the space behind the devices only to store the
cables that are connected to the devs... I don't even want to imagine
what a totally loose cable with two big XLR-jack will do to the
devices in a rough transport...
And I need the cables in the drawer to shock-protect the laptop :-)

Yeah, I totally ignored that part because it was so easy. My
distribution of choice is gentoo. I activated preemption and use the
realtime-lsm method to get realtime-rights. Otherwise almost all the
apps I use are straight from the (instable) gentoo tree. Only for
freebob I had to create my own ebuild so I can cleanly (un-)install in
the system...
Before I forget: the laptop is a amd64 (running in 64bit ;-) while my
home-pc is an intel P4. Both run equally stable. (ardour crashes after
stopping a recording if I save the session during the pre-roll...)
I can't even guess what it feels like to have
things working correctly.

I can understand your situation. I tried to run my firepod on windows
last weekend. What a mess!
Have fun,
Arnold

I might have another look at gentoo. About a year & 1/2 ago I tried
setting up a gentoo system & never got far because gentoo didn't seem to
like my cd-rom drive. It would have a kernel panic attempting to detect
the drive it was already reading from & gave up. I tried a few
suggestions offered on the gentoo IRC channel, but nothing got me beyond
that point in the install. That was on an old system I was only using to
play around with. Trying an install on a more update system might give
better results.
Yeah, & as little as I'd like to, if I can't get Linux audio working I
may have to return to windows. It seems that things either fall together
with Linux or they don't, & people are forced to leave.
Hi,

I agree. I don't think hauling stuff around in the leftover space in the
rack, or shipping it that way, would make any of the gear perform
better. What I mean was...well...I don't know what I was thinking. You
could store an extra hat if it wasn't extravagantly large, or a
toothbrush or some ramen noodles, I don't know :)

The laptop I have isn't new. However, I don't consider it completely
obsolete. The processor is a 2.00GHz Intel Pentium M Dothan in a Dell
Precision M60. I'm glad 64bit is working smoothly for you. Somewhere, I
can see it in my future :) BTW, not that I know anything about it, but
are you using the gentoo audio overlay?

Can you put these two files in the same directory, and run the
freebob_debug_log.sh script as follows:
(as root)
# ./freebob_debug_log username verbose.log > out.log
then send me the verbose.log and out.log files.
You can also try and take a look at the out.log file, it will most
likely indicate the problems.
