Hi-ho, I've got a 6-in-1 in my work machine which works fine under 2.4.20+ kernels for CF, Memory stick and SD but not XD, unsure why XD dosn't work, but then I've only seen one of those cards once, we use mainly CF, with a couple of Memorystick devices.
The brand escapes me, but it's a USB 2.0 device, it's a generic cheap-o Taiwanese type thing. Cheers, me. On Tue, 2003-07-22 at 14:07, Jason Greenwood wrote: > Hi, > > Not entirely true.
