Under Mac OS X, system.log says "FireWire (OHCI) Apple ID 31 built-in now
active". Could still be lucent though, judging by the subsys device ID of
5811, which matches up w/the Lucent/Agere FW323. But no, apparently I
don't have the interesting one.
Well, it's interesting in the sense that it's a "normal" OHCI then on a
BE machine :-) My Pismo, which had the weirdo one, unfortunately died a
while ago. I'll see if I can find another machine with that one in.
Ah, the pismo has it, eh? I think I may actually know of someone in the office
that still has one of those that I might be able to borrow and poke at...
I -think- it has it... Pismo definitely has one of the first variant of
UniNorth with "working" FW afaik.
The first UniNorth was used in the first "toilet-seat" ibook, but I
think this one didn't have firewire, or a non-working one... and in the
first Sawtooth G4 for which FW and Ethernet even were separate PCI chips
because the ones in UniNorth were too broken.
It's possible that early G4 titanium powerbooks or other model of FW
iBooks have that UniNorth FW variant too.
Still no luck finding one here. The person I was thinking of has a
Lombard, which has no firewire. I did get ahold of a 667MHz Titanium,
but its got an Agere FW323. Pretty sure my old man actually has a Pismo,
but its about a 3000 mile drive over to my folks house. The search
continues... I wonder how many people still actually 1) have a machine
with this controller, 2) are running Linux on it and 3) use firewire
devices with it. Both of you, please speak up, we're trying to help you!
(if only out of morbid curiosity to see this mythical goofy controller).
