M-Audio ProFire Lightbridge: Kernel panic

[jpnielsen]

Trying to revive old "M-Audio ProFire LightBridge" interface.

It's attached using adat to one PreSonus Digimax FS (I also have a Behringer Ultragain Pro-8 and an Expert Sleepers ES-3 with adat) no-name Firewire pci-e interface (VIA VT6307 + asmedia asm1083 ICs) motherboard is an ASRock Phantom Gaming 4 / AMD X570 CPU is a Ryzen 7 3700x RAM is 2x16GB Corsair CMK32GX4M2B3200C16

05:00.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394): VIA Technologies, Inc. VT6306/7/8 [Fire II(M)] IEEE 1394 OHCI Controller (rev 80)

I get a Kernel Panic when I turn on the "M-Audio ProFire LightBridge".

The "M-Audio ProFire LightBridge" using the M-Audio drivers for windows 7 SP1 (released 06/02/2012):
Using the M-Audio system-tray tool, I can set the sample rate and sync and the LED's change accordingly on the ProFire.
But when i try sending audio to it, windows crashes.
https://m-audio.com/support/download/drivers/firewire-installer-6.0.4-driver-5.10.0.5061

I don't have other firewire devices for testing the VIA firewire adapter.

Am I missing something obvious? Any tips on how to proceed ?

Thank you for your contributions to the community.

Perhaps of use, i installed Ubuntu Studio 21.04

News - New kernel - no panic.

But, pulseaudiocontrol takes a long time to come up - and the Firewire<>Adat box is not seen.

Hi,

News - New kernel - no panic.

That sounds good. As long as I know, many users of Ryzen Zen 2 SoC encounter the similar issue. I guess it comes from the other part of functions irrelevant to IEEE 1394 bus and M-Audio ProFire Lightbridge.

Anyway the kernel panic issue is fixed in your side. Let you close the issue and file another one for the discontinuous issue.

I did buy a 5m FireWire cable - the FW wikipedia page says 4.5m max - perhaps that is part of the explanation for the errrors ?
