Re: [Freedos-user] USB parameters

Unfortunately, the /X parameter is the only one you can really play with that 
might have any effect.  Sorry about that.

I'm working on updates to all of the USB drivers, but don't have a lot of time 
to devote to it.  Hopefully, the next version will have problems like these 
solved.  In the meantime, you'll probably either need to use Linux or one of 
the other DOS USB drivers.

[Freedos-user] USB parameters

2013-03-20 Thread Marcos Favero Florence de Barros
Hi Bret and others,

I have a rather old Olympus digital camera, and I would like to
download its pictures in FreeDOS with the USB cable, but this
isn't working. In fact, it is still worse: it does work, but
only 1 out of 10 times.

(It works in Linux alright, but I take recourse to Linux only
for those things that cannot be done in FreeDOS.)

In a series of tests, the possibilities that the fault is in (1)
motherboard, (2) cable, (3) USB port, or (4) picture memory card
have all been excluded.

I download pictures regularly in FreeDOS from another Olympus
camera with the USB cable. There were problems in the beginning
too, but by trial and error I found a value for the /X parameter
that makes it work reliably.

For the current camera, I tried the same /X trick, but it did
not work. Is there any other parameter or option which I should
try?

Thanks,

Marcos

PS: I remember what you said about the USB architecture being flaky,
so I'm not entertaining overly high hopes with this camera.
