I cannot get the Trakker parallel port drive to work on my system.
It's and old trakker 350 and works fine in DOS but I haven't been able to
get Linux to see it. Following is the entries in the conf.modules and the
entries in the MCONFIG file that I built ftape from.
I am using Linux 2.0.30 (yes I know I should upgrade but I am using a funky
lap-top that 2.0.36 dies on). I have upgraded the modutils to the latest
version. I am building ftape from the ftape-4.03-pre-2 version.
I have read everything I can find on the subject including the readmes,
faqs, and howtos but evidently am configuring something wrong.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. If you need more info please let me
know.
Thanks
