You've configured the Cisco switch for dynamic LACP, while the Foundry FESX
is configured for static etherchannel.  So, your choices are to a.)
reconfigure the Cisco box to do static etherchannel or b.) configure the
FESX for LACP.  Here's a config sample for LACP on Foundry gear:

FastIron(config)#interface ethernet 1
FastIron(config-if-e1000-1)#link-aggregate active
FastIron(config)#interface ethernet 2
FastIron(config-if-e1000-2)#link-aggregate active

I'm trying to configure a LACP port-channel between Cisco 6509 and Foundry
FESX.

Cisco config:

interface Port-channel1
 switchport
 switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
 switchport trunk allowed vlan 2,28
 switchport mode trunk
 no ip address
!
interface GigabitEthernet1/5
 switchport
 switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
 switchport trunk allowed vlan 2,28
 switchport mode trunk
 no ip address
 channel-protocol lacp
 channel-group 1 mode active
!
interface GigabitEthernet1/6
 switchport
 switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
 switchport trunk allowed vlan 2,28
 switchport mode trunk
 no ip address
 channel-protocol lacp
 channel-group 1 mode active
!

Foundry config (trunk config only, I omitted vlan config for the purpose of
this email):

trunk ethe 1 to 2
trunk deploy

After everything is seemingly up and running on the Foundry side (trunk
active), I notice some intermittent connectivity, along with Arp traffic
looping back from the Cisco.  So I check the Cisco and po1 is 'down', no
trunk...

#sh int po1
Port-channel1 is down, line protocol is down (notconnect)
 Hardware is EtherChannel, address is 0013.6067.899a (bia 0013.6067.899a)
 MTU 1500 bytes, BW 100000 Kbit, DLY 100 usec,
<--snip-->

I hope I'm just missing something really stupid on the Cisco side...because
there isn't much else to configure on the Foundry!

Thanks in advance.
