I use a cd writer connected to a parallel port on a toshiba laptop. what I usually do is: 1. plug the cable (!) 2. modprobe paride 3. modprobe epat (this is the protocol I am using) 4. modprobe pg (parallel generic) What I also did was to 4. modprobe pcd 5. mount -t iso9660 /dev/pcd0 /cdrom It works. I used kernels 2.0.34, 2.0.35, 2.1.128, 2.1.129, 2.1.130 without problems. To modprobe this modules you have to be root user. Bue, Giuseppe
