My parellel port zip drive works with windoze and dos but not linux.
I can't get ppa to work. The archives indicate that a kmod / kerneld
problem exists when there is no scsi host adapter present. I tried
the suggestion of putting scsi_hostadapter ppa into the
/etc/config.modules but had not luck.
Any ideas to help me???
