Hello!
I compiled the Zipdriver ppa from the 2.0.35 kernel as a module, but
there seems to be a problem in communication with the ZIP drive.
The communication problem can be seen that, the Vendor, Model, Rev, and
so on are not equal after 2 attempts (load and unload of the module).
For example:
First attempt:
IOMEGa
Second attempt:
OOMEGa
I tried to modify the parameters of the module ppa, but it doesn't work.
# Zip Drive
alias parport_lowlevel parport_pc
alias scsi_hostadapter ppa
#options ppa ppa=,1,6,0
Is there a posibility to set the parameters for the ppa in the
conf.module file or with insmod?
