[LAU] firewire expresscard issue

[gregolak]

Hello,

I bought an edirol fa-66 which doesn't work on my ACER 7720 laptop
(freebob).
I tried a few things (disable cpu  frequency scaling, change priority with
setpci,
rtirq script...) without success. I have a Ricoh firewire controller, and I
read
it can be buggy with firewire audio cards.

Therefore I bought an expresscard firewire... and I cannot manage to use it
!!
I'm aware it isn't really an audio issue, but if someone here know the
answer
(or maybe you have an idea where else I could have help ?)...

It seems recognized as PCI device, but not as firewire. lspci -v gives :

02:00.0 PCI bridge: Texas Instruments XIO2000(A)/XIO2200(A) PCI
Express-to-PCI Bridge (rev 03) (prog-if 00 [Normal decode])
    Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0
    Bus: primary=02, secondary=03, subordinate=03, sec-latency=0
    Capabilities: [50] Power Management version 2
    Capabilities: [60] Message Signalled Interrupts: Mask- 64bit+ Queue=0/4
Enable-
    Capabilities: [80] Subsystem: Gammagraphx, Inc. Unknown device 0000
    Capabilities: [90] Express PCI/PCI-X Bridge IRQ 0


I tried "modprobe pciehp pciehp_force=1", "modprobe pci_hotplug" but same
thing...
I tried to plug the card before boot (just a few seconds after turning the
laptop on,
it freezes if I plug it before...) and after.

/var/log/syslog while I plus the card :

If you have an idea... thanks a lot !
