Hi again. So, I mentioned that my ditto max drive isn't working. Here's
the basic problem. Whenever I ttry to use the device (I've been using
/dev/nqft0), I get the message "device not configured".
I have the parallel port version, kernel 2.2.6, and the most recent ftape.
My /var/log/kernmsg shows the following when I try to insert the modules.
Any suggestions?
Apr 27 17:38:42 wave kernel: parport0: no IEEE-1284 device present.

Also, when I try to use the device kernmsg shows this:

Thanks,
