I had posted about some DVD burner problems awhile back, see <http://www.mail-archive.com/misc@openbsd.org/msg44484.html>
They are solved now. The problem was the TSSTCorp SH-S182D was running really old firmware. I upgraded the firmware to SB04 and it is working fine, and reading the discs that it burns. In the process I also put it into an external enclosure with USB 2.0 connection so that I could hook it up to my roomates laptop and upgrade the firmware. In the process of working on this, I discovered that Ubuntu i386 leaves my VGE ethernet card in a state such that the ciphy PHYS layer driver does not load when I boot back into OpenBSD 4.2 amd64. I also learned alot about SCSI debugging and DVD formats, upgraded to -current, and gained an even deeper appreciation of the level of documentation in OpenBSD. More about the VGE issue later... Thanx, just wanted the fix to be in the archives... -- Sincerely, Craig Brozefsky <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> what a klon - neko http://www.red-bean.com/~craig Less matter, more form! - Bruno Schulz ignazz, I am truly korrupted by yore sinful tzourceware. -jb
