Has anyone ever connected 

Freecom Traveller II CD RW CMCIA drive (www.freecom.com)

to a Linux box successfully?

I have a Dell Inspiron 7500 Laptop 700 MHz Pentium III 128MB.
My CD RW drive works under Windows 98 SE, however I cannot 
get the drive to work under SuSE Linux 7.1.

I installed `append="hde=ide-scsi"' under lilo.conf
I recompiled the kernel with PCMCIA SCSI make modules of tape,
cdrom, disk configuration settings.

I had a look at the http://seismo.ethz.ch/linux/xcdroast.html
and tried all the ideas in this document.

I search on google.com "freecom cd rw linux" came up with
nothing special, except that CD Writer is mushitushi driver
and what ever that means, and it needs to be booted from DOS
to work.

Any one know and anything special?

Here is my dmesg output:
