It looks like the same bug I had with a FireWire disk:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=113190575323210&w=2

Stefan Richter, linux1394-devel, made a patch, and IINM it might be
in 2.6.15 if it gets <hint> enough testing </hint> .... :) But the
patch works here, on a Titanium IV.

Here's the message with the patch:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux1394-devel&m=113370052624172&w=2

The thread:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=113370068400002&r=1&w=2

Even more:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=113190586800003&r=1&w=2
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?t=113310297200002&r=1&w=2

Yes, it was hard work ... :)

Enjoy. And if it works (or not) please let the linux-devel list know:
AFAIK you don't have to be subscribed to post messages there ...

Best Regards
Wolfgang
