That is going to be a SDA device and will have another form of content protection like CPRM and Linux will not support that superset of features at this time or in the future. SMA's are on the hit list for music by the SDMI. If you want to use it as as standard ATA device cool, but the 0xD{0123} opt-codes are not public yet and fall under CFA. Because it does not use a public spec and I can not release the private one.well you get the point.

No patches, no libraries, no bull. This laptop is a pile of crap and most PCMCIA related stuff tends to break randomly - but this card has worked flawlessly all the time. The trasfer-rate from a 32MByte flash card is roughly 800 KB/sec, it can't do DMA. -- : [EMAIL PROTECTED] : And I see the elder races, : :.: putrid forms of man: : Jakob Østergaard : See him rise and claim the earth, : :OZ9ABN : his downfall is at hand. : :.:{Konkhra}...: - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/

I have a Simple Technology PCMCIA adapter that just worked when I compiled the PCMCIA modules for my kernel. It just looks like an IDE hard drive to linux and shows up as an /dev/hdxx device. -- AJ Lewis Sistina Software Inc.

smartmedia adapter support??
Just wondering whether anyone has successfully gotten either a PCMCIA SmartMedia Adapter (specifically the Viking Components one) or a FlashPath floppy SmartMedia adapter working under 2.4.x. I've got both, and haven't gotten either working under either 2.2.x or 2.4.x, but I haven't had the time to work real hard at it either, so I'm hoping someone can give me some pointers...
