I have a client with aHello,
We tried to plug our brand new external disc, Freecom classic 160 GB, in our Red Hat 2.4.27 Linux kernel, but it doesn't work at all. We installed a VIA pci-usb card, in order to try the USB 2.0 interface, but with the same result.
Is there anyone who could help us with this problem?
Thank's in advance!
Rafael.
FRE-23237 FREECOM CLASSIC - 250GB EXTERNAL HARD DRIVE
and Redhat9 (kernel 2.4.30.9) reports "kernel: usb.c: USB device 2 (vend/prod 0x7ab/0xfccd) is not claimed by any active driver. "
Is that the same "vend/prod" as yours?
Do keep in touch and let me know if you find a solution.

Now fixed, somewhat, by also plugging in a more compatible Maxtor USB1 110Gb drive. Suddenly the RH9 kernel "decided" to recognise both drives and make them sda and sdb !
It reported the correct model No of the Freecom's Hitachi HDD but still reported some I/O errors during recognition, though none during use.
My client has two Freecoms and they are now recognised easily without the Maxtor being present.
Strange, eh?
