Firewire HDs, Sleep, and Sound



I have here a new install of Debian PPC on a desktop
PowerMac (the Windtunnel). I'm running Sid with kernel
2.6.11. Most everything works fine, but I've got a few
problems/questions that I couldn't track down. I'm new
to Debian PPC, but not new to either Debian or PPC in
general, so you don't have to be too gentle on me ;)

1) I have a Firewire HD that I can't get to work. It's
an OWC Mercury disk. When I plug it in, I see this in
the logs:

Apr  9 00:45:50 arkadia kernel: ieee1394: got invalid
ack 252 from node 65473 (tcode 4)
Apr  9 00:45:51 arkadia last message repeated 2 times

Apr  9 00:45:57 arkadia kernel: ieee1394: Error
parsing configrom for node 0-00:1023

Nothing shows in /proc/scsi/scsi. I've tried being
creative with the ordering of module loading vs.
plugging in the disk, but no change.

2) Sound only partially works (Snapper). In
particular, only the internal speaker works. I have
some external speakers connected to the
Headphone/Line-out jack. snd-powermac is loaded.
alsamixer &c won't let me unmute that device.

3) Can I suspend this machine, either to RAM or to
disk? I saw some tools for doing it on a laptop (pmud)
- will these work on this desktop model?

Thanks for any help you can give me. Hope these aren't
asked too frequently - after 21 hours awake, I'm too
tired to find these previous posts if they exist ;)
