firewire 800 trouble

[Alexis Z. <az...@ga...>]

Hi all.

I am having trouble seeing my Lacie BigDisk when I try and connect it via 
firewire 800.  I tried plugging and unplugging the disk and get no 
messages in my dmesg.  I've loaded the following modules: raw1394, ieee1394, 
ohci1394, sbp2, sd_mod.  As was suggested in an earlier message today, 
I've tried each of the ports, turned the disk on and off, and ran the 
script rescan-scsi-bus.sh so far with no recognition of the disk.  I've 
checked the external disk on a Mac, and it works fine.

Here are some specifics on my system:
debian system
kernel: 2.4.24
libraw1394: 0.10.1-1.1
pci card: LaCie FireWire 800 PCI Card FireWire adapter - 3 ports
external disk: LaCie 500GB Big Disk
DVD burner - scsi emulation



Snipet from dmesg when boots:

scsi0 : SCSI host adapter emulation for IDE ATAPI devices
   Vendor: ASUS      Model: DRW-0402P/D       Rev: 1.05
   Type:   CD-ROM                             ANSI SCSI revision: 02

Packet=[4096]
raw1394: /dev/raw1394 device initialized
sbp2: $Rev: 1074 $ Ben Collins <bco...@de...>

Note: After changing disk (ie. port or on and off) nothing is added to 
dmesg.

Any suggestions?  Do I need to downgrade to a firewire 400 card?

Thanks for the help.
Alexis
