Hi,
I am having trouble accessing a zip drive under linux. OK, I'm definitely
not very experienced with linux, but judging from the straightforward
installation descriptions, I might have a general problem.
I have 2 EIDE hard disks and a HP SCSI scanner, which is connected to a
Symbios Logic controller.
I use SuSE 6.3, kernel 2.2.13
I followed the HowTo's.
Via xconfig I reconfigured the kernel:
SCSI support = y
SCSI disk support = y
IOMEGA parallel port (ppa - older drivers) = m
IOMEGA parallel port (imm - newer drivers) = m
Force the Iomega ZIP drivers to use EPP-16 = n
Parallel printer support = m
when I try insmod, I get the following:
isnmod imm
Using /lib/modules/2.2.13/scsi/imm.o
/lib/modules/2.2.13/scsi/imm.o: unresolved symbol parport_unregister_device
