Re: [Bug 981936] Re: 1217:00f7 Firewire prevents booting
I don't want to install an alpha version on my machine therefore I've tried with USB boot stick instead using 13.10 and 14.01 (trusty-desktop-i386.iso04-Jan-2014 07:51 ). Both fails on exactly the same line when booting without the splash screen. firewire_ohci failed to set power level and then everything halts - keyboard unresponsive. The USB stick boots fine on other machines. If I add the blacklist=firewire_ohci to the commandline boot it loads a bit further, but halts later on it seems like its loading the firewire_ohci disregarding the boot option. Guess its an USB stick boot design issue. Since I cant boot from the stick, I cant run the apport command. Cant you use the original attached apport ?. My hardware hasn't changed. As long as the kernel issue remains unfixed I don't see how newer versions of ubuntu could fix this ?. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43244 I think Rob Allan did a bisect and found a pretty precise commit in the 3.1.0-rc2 3.1.0-rc3 kernel that caused the issue. Some firewire refactoring. On Sun, 2013-12-29 at 19:55 +, Christopher M. Penalver wrote: Sten Bennetsen, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently.

Christopher, One more thing: I was told that the kernel bug-reporting instructions you referenced in comment #28 are incorrect. (See the initial discussion linked from the kernel bug.) What's the best way to get them updated?

[Bug 981936] Re: 1217:00f7 Firewire prevents booting
Actually *I'm* wrong about the bug reporting instructions being wrong. They're technically correct, but they seem to imply that one should go straight to the kernel bugzilla, instead of the kernel mailing lists. So it might still be useful to emphasise the use of the mailing lists for bug *reporting*. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/981936 Title: 1217:00f7 Firewire prevents booting To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/981936/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
