I have a 'hack (GA-B75M-D3P, Core i5-3570K, 8GB Corsair RAM, built-in HD4000 graphics, etc, no other cards installed, built-in audio/Ethernet/USB, etc.) running 10.9.4. Works perfectly. I added a Syba PEX30016 PCIe Firewire card (TI chipset), that at least one Amazon reviewer identified as working with a Hackintosh. OS X seems to see it; under FireWire in System Information, I get: "Maximum Speed: Up to 800 Mb/sec" and in dmesg I see:
But when I plug in my FireWire device (a Sony DCR-TRV460 "Digital8" camcorder from 2004), nothing sees it, not even iMovie HD 6.0.3.
The same camera, same cable, same iMovie version, works perfectly with the camera when connected to a circa-2006 MacBook with built-in FireWire (running 10.5.11), so it's not a problem with the camera, cable, or application software.
When the camera is connected to the FireWire 400 port, I get messages like this one repeating in dmesg:
lspci -nn sees the card as:
Not sure what else to do, to troubleshoot...
Code:
$ sudo dmesg | grep -i firewire
FireWire runtime power conservation disabled. (3)
FireWire (OHCI) TI ID 823f PCI now active, GUID 7856341278563412; max speed s800.
