Bug Description
I plug in a firewire drive (a Western Digital MyBook Premium); nothing happens.
If I have udevmonitor running, no messages appear, whilst I get a screed of messages if I plug or unplug my USB card reader.
The drive doesn't seem to be physically dead (it makes a happy whirring noise and the blue light at the front comes on), but the machine's behaving as if I don't have firewire at all.
This is an Intel DG965 board.
lspci says 06:03.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Texas Instruments TSB43AB22/A IEEE-1394a-2000 Controller (PHY/Link)
dmesg | grep 1394 says
[ 31.205094] ieee1394: Initialized config rom entry `ip1394'
[ 33.366729] ohci1394: fw-host0: OHCI-1394 1.1 (PCI): IRQ=[19] MMIO=[e0004000-

I'm not sure what to do next.
If you still have this hardware: Compare the contents of /proc/interrupts right before and after you plugged the drive in.
