Re: SanDisk SDDR-09 - can't use :(
My problem isn't so much that the usb-storage driver isn't loaded - I load it by hand - but rather that even when it is loaded, when the device is inserted, the USB stack claims that no active driver is available. -Brice Stew Benedict wrote: Followup - just tried it on a Mandrake system with my CDDR-31. If it was connected at boot, the usb-storage driver is loaded, but you still need sd_mod for SCSI disk support. You could pick this up by adding: above usb-storage sd_mod in /etc/modules.conf HTH, Stew Benedict
Re: SanDisk SDDR-09 - can't use :(
Hi Stew, This is with the Mandrake kernel (2.4.4-6.2mdk). I'll check out the link you have ... I take it imaclinux.net is up again? :) Brice Stew Benedict wrote: You'll also need SCSI support setup, as it emulates a SCSI device. Here's a link to a piece I wrote on a CDDR-31 I setup a while back: http://www.imaclinux.net/php/imaclinux_g_h.php3?single=47+index=0 Is this your own kernel or a Mandrake one? You may have to coax some modules to load. Stew Benedict -- WebProjkt, Inc. (ph) 773.562.1008 (fax) 608.204.7004 http://www.webprojkt.com/
Re: SanDisk SDDR-09 - can't use :(
You really have scsi_mod? Looking at the RPM, I thought I built it core SCSI support integrated into the kernel. I don't see that module when I rpm -qilp PPC/Mandrake/RPMS/kernel-2.4.4-6.2mdk.ppc.rpm | grep scsi_mod I vaguely remember when I first setup the SanDisk, that the core SCSI support needed to be in the kernel, for whatever reason. You could try loading scsi_mod first, then usb-storage.

The only thing I notice is that US_FL_IGNORE_SER is set for the CDDR, where it is not for yours. But looking at usb.c, it looks like that should not affect loading the driver.

You'll also need SCSI support setup, as it emulates a SCSI device.

I checked the file /usr/src/linux/drivers/usb/storage/unusual_devs.h and it shows two entries for the SDDR-09, one of which has IDs of 0x0781 and 0x0200 - as the log shows mine has. The driver is inserted in the kernel - the log shows that USB Mass Storage support has been registered ... but that's it. Any help with this or pointer to someone who might be able to help would be greatly appreciated. Regards, Brice Ruth
