Message-ID: <1076529308.2363.5.camel@gentoo-ibook> (raw)

Hello everyone,
I am having a great deal of difficulty getting udev to work on my G3
iBook (600 Mhz, dual usb).  I have the following chain of ieee1394
devices: 

western digital hard drive -> ide to firewire converter with a ide cd
recorder -> 3rd gen iPod.

When I plug in my firewire cable to the ibook, it does detect all of the
devices (according to systool -b ieee1394), and by watching /sys/block,
I can see that it sees sda (the hardrive), and then sda and sr0 (the
recorder), and then _only_ sdb (ie /sys/block no longer lists sda or
sr0).  

Alternativly, if I change the order of the devices by flipping the drive
and the recorder, I get sda, and then sda and sr0, and then only sr0.  

Under both of these scenarios, it seems that udev eventually forgets
about both, and eventually /sys/block contains:

hda  ram0  ram10  ram12  ram14  ram2  ram4  ram6  ram8
hdb  ram1  ram11  ram13  ram15  ram3  ram5  ram7  ram9

I havn't the slightest clue about how to go about fixing this problem. 
I am running udev .016 and hotplug from 2004-01-05.  This is kernel
2.6.1 with the behn patches.  Distro is gentoo.  Please let me know if
there is any additional information I can provide that would be helpful
in diagnosing/solving this problem.  Thanks in advance and the neat
software.

	Pete Snyder
