Hi people,
I am trying to make my two USB peripherals : Iomega Zip 100 USB and Iomega
Predator 3 to work in RedHat 8.0 through a Cardbus PCMCIA USB 2.0 card . It
is a no-brand one so I don't known which company manufactured it (got it
from SLS), but it is based on the NEC chip. My motherboard also has one
built-in USB port. it is working using the uhci module.
RH 8.0 stock 2.4.18 kernel can't recognize the PCMCIA card at all ...
I used Mandrake 9.0 last month with the default kernel 2.4.19 and any device
I plugged into the cardbus would only appear for a while in usbview before
disappearing again ....
So now I am trying with kernel 2.5.46. I've got support for USB and hotplug,
while ehci, uhci, ohci, usb-storage, scsi generic, scsi cdrom were compiled
as modules. I have installed the pcmcia-cs 3.2.3 packages, and when I slot
in the Cardbus, the appropriate modules were automatically loaded
(yenta_socket, pcmcia_core, ehci_hcd and usb_ohci).
Now, no matter what I do, I can't get any device that I connect to any USB
port (either the Cardbus ones or the mobo one) to be recognized by the
kernel when checking either through lsusb and usbview. I have checked
through lspci, /proc/interrupts and /proc/ioports but cant find any conflict
in the resource allocation. Coldplugging or hotplugging the device again
doesn't help either.
Is there any step that I miss here? Any help would be appreciated ...
