These things usually involve some sort of locking or encryption scheme that Linux doesn't know about.
It is a multi-partition device, where the first partition should show up as a USB cdrom (ro) device, the second partition should show as USB flash device and the third partition is a hidden partition, which AFAIK requires a special software to connect to (I haven't tested yet).
The correct term is "logical unit", not "partition". A partition is a portion of a disk drive, so a partition cannot be a CDROM device.
Thanks for the info, I think it's time to read the USB spec :).
You could try using usbmon to capture the USB communications when you plug in the device. Instructions for usbmon are in the kernel source, in Documentation/usb/usbmon.txt. If you post the output here, we'll be able to see what's going on.
I'll do just that, thanks! /h -- Holger Eitzenberger <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | Kernel Developer Astaro AG | www.astaro.com | Phone +49-721-25516-246 | Fax -200 ------------------------------------------------------- All the advantages of Linux Managed Hosting--Without the Cost and Risk!
