    After a full day of searching the web, I still need help.

    I am trying to get my Backpack CDRW to work in any capacity, read or
    write.

    I have done the following:

    1. Set my CMOS to EPP.

    2. Verified the parallel hardware settings are I/O 0x378 and IRQ 7.

    3. Compiled my kernel (2.4.18) with the following options:
    CONFIG_PARPORT=y
    CONFIG_PARPORT_PC=y
    CONFIG_PARPORT_PC_CML1=y
    CONFIG_PARPORT_1284=y
    CONFIG_PARIDE=m
    CONFIG_PARIDE_PARPORT=y
    CONFIG_PARIDE_PD=m
    CONFIG_PARIDE_PCD=m
    CONFIG_PARIDE_PF=m
    CONFIG_PARIDE_PT=m
    CONFIG_PARIDE_PG=m
    CONFIG_PARIDE_BPCK6=m

    4. After reboot, dmesg shows: (Good!)
    parport0: PC-style at 0x378 (0x778) [PCSPP,TRISTATE,EPP]
    parport0: irq 7 detected

    5. Try to load the modules:
    insmod paride
    insmod bpck6
    insmod pg (or insmod pcd)

    6. I get the following results:
    insmod paride
    Using /lib/modules/2.4.18/kernel/drivers/block/paride/paride.o
    insmod bpck6
    Using /lib/modules/2.4.18/kernel/drivers/block/paride/bpck6.o
    insmod pg
    Using /lib/modules/2.4.18/kernel/drivers/block/paride/pg.o
    /lib/modules/2.4.18/kernel/drivers/block/paride/pg.o: init_module:
    Operation not permitted
    Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters,
    including invalid IO or IRQ parameters

    7. Here is what dmesg says: (Strangely, There is no mention at all of
    the bpck6 module)
    paride: version 1.06 installed (parport)
    pg: pg version 1.02, major 97
    pg0: Autoprobe failed
    pg: No ATAPI device detected

    8. lsmod shows:
    bpck6 8576 0 (unused)
    paride 5376 0 [bpck6]
    NVdriver 1063392 10 (autoclean)
    ide-scsi 9504 0
    scsi_mod 98164 1 [ide-scsi]

    9. If I do a rmmod bpck6, i get the following:
    paride: bpck6 not registered

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Duane Drake
