I've got an Apacer SM/CF combo reader too. I found your email : I just got myself an Apacer SM/CF combo reader, USB 07c4:a109. The CF part is supported in the stock kernel (by datafab.c), the SM part is not. This evening I wrote a read-only driver; hope to add the writing part soon. Andries
Does your driver work well ? Yes, it reads and writes without problems, both CF and SM, assuming the surrounding kernel works. Is it in the stock kernel now ? If not, is it possible to get it? Now the question arises what you mean by "stock kernel". 2.6.0-test3 is still in a sorry state. I cannot insmod usb-storage.o for a vanilla 2.6.0-test3. It hangs. (Have not checked yet whether this is a permanent hang or one of these scsi_eh_X that spend hours resetting the bus and trying again. I booted 33 min ago and it still hangs.) I have not tried 2.4 recently, but that is supposedly stable. If you need the CF half, you need no help from me, you must "just" find some kernel where usb-storage and usb and scsi all work. Maybe a recent 2.4 would do. If you need the SM half, ask me again. Andries [Long ago I made some general common infrastructure for SM readers. In May 2002 someone asked me for this stuff and I put something at ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/aeb/usb-storage.tar.gz Don't recall precisely what this is, or to what kernel it belonged, in view of the date it may have been 2.5.13 or 2.5.14. But I see there is an apacer.c, and the source looks healthy at first sight.] ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Free pre-built ASP.NET sites including Data Reports, E-commerce, Portals, and Forums are available now.
