Hi.
I happened by an old (x1) philips/lms cm205 CDROM (with a cm250 interface
card) and decided to add it to my fileserver. under DOS it works.
the 2.2.5 kernel has support for the x2 model (called cm206 with the cm260
interface card)
this driver wont work with this CD-ROM. (when I point the drivers IO and
IRQ to that of the adapter using the append option, the kernel hangs
during booting). no device conflicts.
[*] Support non-SCSI/IDE/ATAPI CDROM drives
< > Aztech/Orchid/Okano/Wearnes/TXC/CyDROM CDROM support
< > Goldstar R420 CDROM support
< > Matsushita/Panasonic/Creative, Longshine, TEAC CDROM support
< > Mitsumi (standard) [no XA/Multisession] CDROM support
< > Mitsumi [XA/MultiSession] CDROM support
< > Optics Storage DOLPHIN 8000AT CDROM support
<*> Philips/LMS CM206 CDROM support
<*> Sanyo CDR-H94A CDROM support <==== this one
< > ISP16/MAD16/Mozart soft configurable cdrom interface support
< > Sony CDU31A/CDU33A CDROM support
< > Sony CDU535 CDROM support
however, checking my /dev I found the following:
14:36|[pharoe] aris:/dev#ls -la cm*
brw-r----- 1 root disk 30, 0 Jun 24 1998 cm205cd
brw-r----- 1 root disk 32, 0 Jun 24 1998 cm206cd
so this device DOES have major and minor nummies.
Anyone know if a driver for this thingie exists, and where I may lay my
sweaty little hands on it?
thanks in advance...
