What's happening?

    The fix has been released in kernel 2.6.29-rc4, 2.6.28.5, and 2.6.27.16.

    Great. I have posted the fix (http://marc.info/?l=linux1394-devel&m=123247508317615) and will add a note here when it went into mainline kernel releases. From there it should find its way into an Ubuntu kernel, or you could ask the Ubuntu kernel maintainers to get it in quicker. (I don't know their policies and procedures.)

    Could you try the following? In the Linux source tree, edit the file drivers/ieee1394/ohci1394.h: Change the line #define OHCI1394_MAX_AT_REQ_RETRIES 0x2 to #define OHCI1394_MAX_AT_REQ_RETRIES 0xf Then recompile and reinstall the modules (by the following commands ran in the kernel build directory, which is probably the top directory of the kernel source tree): $ make modules $...

    And another Panasonic camcorder issue which I had already forgotten about: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=449252.

    Short update: 1.) I still need to finish the patch queue for you. 2.) Meanwhile I discovered a very similarly looking report against Fedora: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=477279 The Fedora kernel uses new alternative drivers which are able to collect some debug info with a runtime switch. I hope I will learn something useful from the Fedora bug report.

    Good. I already fetched vanilla 2.6.18 and ubuntu 2.6.27-9.19 and have collected the ieee1394 patch series which leads from 2.6.18 to 2.6.27. Now I need to transform the patch series into the reverse. I will post here when I have got it ready for you.

    PS: If you want to try this, I'll also explain how to apply and unapply patches and to rebuild the drivers. But I won't try to explain how to build the kernel in the first place.

    Some things are different from how they look to us or from what we remember about them. :-) - I lived in Berlin for a few years but don't anymore. I never lived in Hamburg. - drivers/firewire/ is different from drivers/ieee1394/. The former was added in Linux 2.6.22, the latter has always been in Linux 2.4 and 2.6 (and is still used in Ubuntu's 2.6.27 kernel package). This also means...

    Yes, the headers are back and filtering is in effect again. Thanks a lot.

    I found an old "... post from ... requires approval" message in my mail archive, from July 2008. As you can see, at that time there was an X-Spam-Report header present which was extremely helpful to catch spam. File Added: linux1394-devel post from jszhang3@mail.ustc.edu.cn requires approval.eml.
