If someone can use a firewire device, then it must be something more specific to my setup or device. I wonder if anyone has a similar device (or even the same device) running in Ubuntu 14.04 (regardless of DE).
As this is GNU/Linux there is always a way to make something work, even if it means compiling something on my own, hacking around in some code, hacking around in configuration files, etc.. I am pretty determined to get this to work, so I am willing to try any other suggestions. I may try the 32bit live DVD soon... I do wish there was an easy way to make a bootable USB for this machine... however all Apple computers make things much harder for the user than necessary (ever changed a hard drive in an iBook?) @Kaj I really appreciate your efforts to help me (in all the different areas you have helped) @mr. fyfe your energetic sense of humour is wasting your talents. You should learn a great constructive way to use your mind, and all the wonderful talents you must have. Surely you are much more intelligent and have a great creativity that can be channeled into something more prosperous for you.
