From: soma@cs.unm.edu (Anil B. Somayaji) Date: 23 Jun 2001 01:23:42 -0600 Message-ID: User-Agent: Gnus/5.090003 (Oort Gnus v0.03) Emacs/20.7 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 In the ide.2.2.19.05042001 patch, there is the following bit of code in ide-scsi.c, which prevents the ide-scsi driver from allowing access to an OnStream DI-30 tape drive. This is strange, since this same drive can be used with the included ide-scsi + osst drivers in the stock 2.2.19 kernel. If you delete this bit, however, ide-scsi recognizes the drive, and the osst driver seems to work fine. Here's the offending code: #ifndef CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDETAPE /* * The Onstream DI-30 does not handle clean emulation, yet. */ if (strstr(drive->id->model, "OnStream DI-30")) { printk("ide-tape: ide-scsi emulation is not supported for %s.\n", drive->id->model); continue; } #endif /* CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDETAPE */ Any reason for this to stay in the ide patch, or is it now obsolete? --Anil - -- Anil Somayaji (soma@cs.unm.edu) http://www.cs.unm.edu/~soma +1 505 872 3150 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAjs0Q/UACgkQXOpXEmNZ3SfrogCfbNzSB7zOjkItzYTOoplxaJJt 5AYAnRrB+KGTYj7wf3/GeV92TLvpKGqi =1TVG -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
