First let me apologize for the length, but I don't want to leave any
information out that maybe helpful to resolving my problem.
Was lucky enough to acquire a 7100e HP CDRW parallel unit. Works under
Windows fine. Decide to move to linux box
Mandrake 6.1
Linux version 2.2.13-7mdk
did the following:
to make sure the lp wasn't using the parallel port
insmod lp
rmmod lp
insmod paride
insmod epat
insmod pcd
It recognizes the drive and I can mount it as /dev/pcd0 /mnt/cdrom with
no issues.
Perused the threads in the support linux-parport list. Found that this
only if I want to use it as a regular CD. So pg is what I want to use
with cdrecord. Downloaded the latest and greatest cdrecord 1.8 to make
sure I would be fully compatible.
Rebooted the system.
insmod lp
rmmod lp
insmod paride
insmod epat
insmod pg
Allows me to blank cd's with cdrecord, but it won't burn files correctly.
Threads in this list indicate that I need to load pg as such:
insmod pg drive0=0x378,0,0,2,1,0
This results in errors when the module loads as such :
insmod pg drive0=0x378,0,0,2,1,0
/lib/modules/2.2.13-7mdk/misc/pg.o: init_module: Device or resource busy
but when I try the following:
insmod pg drive0=0x378,0,0,1,1,0
results in a log to /var/log/messages

then I type :
cdrecord dev=0,0 -checkdrive

maybe a source of my problem ??
cdrecord dev=0,0 -fix gave this

cdrecord -v speed=2 dev=0,0 sample.iso
