Now it is shutting down properly, thanks
Hi! I was having problems shutting down the Startech PEX1394B3 firewire card installed in a Gigabyte Z390 Designare motherboard, and got them fixed by using the (obvious but I missed it until now) Acpi > Fixes 1 > Enable FixFirewire you mention... How could I have missed that!? lol[ SOLVED!!! ]
Hello Sleepless firewire users,
I to had followed this thread and bought the StarTech Firewire pcie card and experienced the same Sleep and Wake issues as everyone else. However I am glad to report that after trying every darkwake setting in clover. Checking the bios WOL setting, inspecting the logs with the terminal command: pmset -g log | grep -Ei 'wake.*due' --nothing was working.
To get sleep (and wake) working with StarTech PEX1394B3 800/400 Firewire PCIe on High Sierra.
1) Open your /EFI/CLOVER/config.plist in CloverConfigurator.App
2) Clover boot > set darkwake to the default "darkwake" setting ( no number )
3) Acpi > Fixes 1 > Enable FixFirewire
4) Acpi > Fixes 2 > Disable FixWAK
5) Reboot - Enjoy your sleep!
This worked like a champ for my i7 8700k / Asus z370a Prime / High Sierra build. Hope this helps anyone else who's looking to get their Firewire card working with sleep.
Now it is shutting down properly, thanks
