 |
|
howdy,
i've set up gentoo on a thinkpad x40 laptop and so far it seems to work more or less. i haven't worked with linux for about 2 years so i'm surprised i got it to work at all 
anyway still got some problems with hardware, most importantly the external usb cd drive. it worked fine during installation with the livecd but with my own kernel it doesn't seem to work.
i've looked around on the forums a bit but i'm not sure what i'm doing wrong. i compiled all sort of usb support into the kernel, also scsi support. i've emerged hotplug and added it to default runlevel. anything i'm missing?
if i understand correctly i should be able to plug in the drive and it should appear on /dev, right? during installation it was called /dev/sr0 but i haven't got any sr now.
sorry if this has been answered in the past but i didn't find anything relevant (maybe i'm too stupid to use the forum search function) |

hotplug also running at default. I only plug it in and it works just fine. Check under
| Code: | | /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/ |
if you see cd afterwards. |
