My guess is all Linux distributions for the last 18 months support it **. The ioctl has been in the sg interface for over 2 years.
The only place it hasn't been is in the official lk 2.4 series but it will be in lk 2.4.19 . For anyone brave enough to use lk 2.5.9 it is in there as well (but the ide-scsi driver is broken at the moment :-) ). Doug Gilbert ** to check if it is available in kernel source go to /usr/src/linux/drivers/scsi and do "grep SCSI_TRY_RESET_DEVICE scsi.h". -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
