    Hi,

    I recently got an mp3-player that came with a MMC-card-reader
    (http://www.scmmicro.com/dm/mmc.html) which connects via the parallel
    port. In windows this reader behaves as any drive.

    In this reader there is a chip, "Shuttle IMPACT-S 0006E". After
    discovering that shuttle-chips seem to be supported by paride I got some
    hope that it would be possible to use this reader under linux. As far as
    I understood, epat is the relevant protocol in my case.

    Hence I tried this:

    insmod parport
    insmod paride
    insmod epat
    insmod pd drive0=0x278,0 verbose=1

    This happens:
    Using /lib/modules/2.4.20/kernel/drivers/block/paride/pd.o
    /lib/modules/2.4.20/kernel/drivers/block/paride/pd.o: init_module:
    Operation not permitted
    /lib/modules/2.4.20/kernel/drivers/block/paride/pd.o: Hint: insmod
    errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid
    IO or IRQ parameters.
          You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg

    and dmesg gives:

    paride: version 1.06 installed (parport)
    paride: epat registered as protocol 0
    pd: pd version 1.05, major 45, cluster 64, nice 0
    parport0: PC-style at 0x278 [PCSPP,TRISTATE,EPP]
    pda: 0x278 is parport0
    pda: epat: port 0x278, mode 0, ccr 0, test=(256,256,0)
    pda: epat: port 0x278, mode 1, ccr 0, test=(256,256,0)
    pda: epat: port 0x278, mode 2, ccr 0, test=(256,256,0)
    pda: epat: port 0x278, mode 3, ccr 0, test=(256,256,0)
    pda: epat: port 0x278, mode 4, ccr 0, test=(256,256,0)
    pda: epat: port 0x278, mode 5, ccr 0, test=(256,256,0)
    pda: Adapter not found
    pd: no valid drive found

    I suspect this is due to some incompatability with the chip in my
    card-reader and epat.c. How would I go about to fix this?
