USB 2.0 support is only in the 2.5 kernel. There may be a backport, but you'd then have to roll your own kernel.
I have a Philips USB 1.x external CD-RW. USB 1.x supports a write speed of only 4x. Cost me about $150 6 months ago. IF you can't get the drivers working, you can pick up a PCMCIA USB card, or Firewire. I'm not sure what the top speed of PCMCIA is, but should support at least 4x. -Mark On Fri, 2002-03-29 at 09:28, Joshua S.
