I've just gotten Win4Lin functional and I have a problem that I can't
think my way through. I admit that I haven't had time to beat on it
but I'm not really sure where to beat :-)
If I boot my system with my standard 2.2.17 kernel my CD-writer is
detected and operates fine. Kudzu (plug-n-play) finds the drive fine,
though I do have make it look like a SCSI drive to write to it. If,
however, I boot with my Win4Lin patched kernel (from the evaluation
download but the problem persists with the online purchased Win4Lin
and also after the update is applied) it says that the CD-ROM that's
specified doesn't exist during the boot cycle and it wants to remove
its configuration. With the Win4Lin kernel I can neither read or
write to the drive.
What's different about the Mandrake 7.1 kernel and the one provided as
the patched kernel with Win4Lin that could cause this? Just doesn't
seem that the patch should affect device support like this, at least
not via Linux. BTW, I'm talking about not being able to access it via
Linux, not from Windows/Win4Lin. Ideas?
Cheers --- Larry
