-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello, and thanks for reading this email.
I've got an HP DVD-200e which is showing up in devfs as a character device. The questions I'm here to ask is: Does anybody have an idea as to why this peripheral would show up as a character device, and what can I do to try to fix this? Thanks so much, in advance, for any information. There are so many places I could be going wrong. First, this is an USB 2.0 device, but I'm connecting it to a USB 1.0 hub and am using the USB 1.0 modules. Am I incorrect in thinking that this, theoretically, *should* work? I'm also using kernel 2.4.19, rather than a 2.5 kernel. This is for two reasons: (1) my 2.5 kernel builds, but most of the modules claim to have unresolved symbols, and (2) I'm using LVM, and am afraid to install the LVM2.0 userspace tools for fear of irrevocably breaking my system. In any case, 2.5.x isn't an option at the moment. Here's some debugging information: The device, in devfs: crw-rw---- 1 root root 21, 0 Dec 31 1969 /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/generic The /proc/bus/usb/devices entry for the drive: T: Bus=01 Lev=02 Prnt=20 Port=01 Cnt=01 Dev#= 22 Spd=12 MxCh= 0 D: Ver= 2.00 Cls=00(>ifc ) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS=64 #Cfgs= 1 P: Vendor=03f0 ProdID=0507 Rev= 3.10 S: Manufacturer=Hewlett-Packard S: Product=USB Storage Adapter S: SerialNumber=0000000000037956 C:* #Ifs= 1 Cfg#= 2 Atr=c0 MxPwr= 98mA I: If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 3 Cls=08(stor.)
