Those are considered obsolete because they require a parallel port. Nowadays people use the ZoomFloppy, which is a USB device: http://store.go4retro.com/zoomfloppy/ However, the software used with the ZoomFloppy (opencbm) also works with the older devices. Here are instructions for building it on Linux: http://www.lyonlabs.org/commodore/building-opencbm-on-linux.html There is also a newer version: http://spiro.trikaliotis.net/opencbm-alpha http://spiro.trikaliotis.net/Download/opencbm-0.4.99.98/opencbm-0.4.99.98-source.tar.bz2 For further information, see "ZoomFloppy Users" on groups.google.com. -- Glenn Holmer (Linux registered user #16682) "After the vintage season came the aftermath -- and Cenbe."
