Recetly I buy a rewriter HP M820 in order to use with my TI notebok,
it is a scsi rewriter of CD with a cardbus to scsi card.
Ican use this writer in a desktop box (of course with Linux) but I cant use it
in the notebok.
I ask to HP and they say me that what I was ask is reserver information ;-)
I insert the pcmcia card and and obtain:
unsoporter card
"KME ", "SCSI-card", "1"
so I look at /etc/pcmcia/config and I can see some "KME " (only with 1 space)
and all use qlogic controler.
then I add one item with "KME " ...
restart psmcia and load in memory qlogicisp module with insmod
after that Iinsert the card and obtain that
