 |
|
Problem 1. I want to use the S/PDIFoutput of my asus a7n8x deluxe. I have followed various guides, but nothing seems to work.
Problem 2. I want to use my cannon s630 usb printer, I have the following, in my dmesg I have the following.
| Code: |
drivers/usb/class/usblp.c: usblp0: USB Bidirectional printer dev 2 if 0 alt 0 proto 2 vid 0x04A9 pid 0x1066
|
But doing cat somefile.txt > /dev/usb/lp0 results in nothing.
Problem 3. I can't get my kernel to even boot with my satadrives connect. (Compiled in Silicon Image chipset support from ATA/ATAPI/MFM/RLL SCSI disk support, sata support and Silicion image support from SCSI subsection.
Problem 4. I want to use my ipod with gtkpod. I can mount it, and ls it's mount point. But gtkpod refuses to read the ipod, even when running as root.
Hardware: XP2000+ Asus A7N8X-deluxe, Sil Sata3112A satainterface, 2*Maxtor sata drives. Kernel version. Linux-2.6.9-ck2. |

problem : are you sure that you name your SATA drive as /dev/sdx ? because the liveCD will detect it as /dev/hdx but kenel as /dev/sdx

I don't know since my kernel won't boot at all, with sata support enabled.

you must have a bootloader (such as LILO or GRUB) ... see the handbook for details...

I have grub, the kernel boots fine, when my satadrives are disconnected.

if you want to boot on your sata drive, then you should write:
| Code: |
kernel /bzImage root=/dev/sda3 vga=795
|
but maybe I misunderstood from the beginning...
are you saying that the simple fact that you connect the SATA drives prevents the kernel to boot from hda whereas it could bout without them connected?

The kernel is installed on a patadrive. But when I compile satasupport, and connect my satadrives, the kernel refuses to boot.
