I bought a PCI/Firewire card and cable, and used it to connect my Sony PV-GS80 camcorder, which uses MiniDV tapes and has a Firewire socket. I get the following messages in /var/log/messages, which suggest the Firewire card may be a bad one. # Turn camera on Nov 6 20:40:00 pcbsd kernel: fwohci0: txd err= 0 No stat Nov 6 20:40:00 pcbsd kernel: firewire0: 2 nodes, maxhop <= 1, cable IRM = 1 Nov 6 20:40:01 pcbsd kernel: fwohci0: unrecoverable error Nov 6 20:40:01 pcbsd kernel: fwohci0: BUS reset Nov 6 20:40:01 pcbsd kernel: fwohci0: node_id=0x8800ffc0, gen=3, non CYCLEMASTER mode Nov 6 20:40:01 pcbsd kernel: fwohci0: txd err= 0 No stat Nov 6 20:40:01 pcbsd kernel: firewire0: 2 nodes, maxhop <= 1, cable IRM = 1 Nov 6 20:40:01 pcbsd kernel: fwohci0: unrecoverable error # Try running kino Nov 6 20:40:56 pcbsd kernel: pid 8206 (kino), uid 1001: exited on signal 11 # Turn camera off Nov 6 20:46:21 pcbsd kernel: fwohci0: too many cycle lost, no cycle master presents?

This is with PC-BSD 7.0 on a test machine. I have a similar lack of success on a Linux machine, with the same card. Should I buy a new card, or is there anything else worth trying first? -- Mike Jeays http://www.jeays.ca
