This page might help: http://www.mostang.com/sane/man/sane-hp.5.html 'man sane-hp' on your system probably contains the same info. There is a lot of useful information on the web site, at any rate. > 2) Xcdroast: I have a SCSI CD-RW drive, and an IDE CD-ROM drive.

Good question. To the best of my knowledge, Xcdroast only knows about cd drives that are on the SCSI bus (or IDE drives using SCSI emulation). I have an IDE CD-RW using SCSI emulation, it works fine. I tried to use SCSI emulation on the cd drive as well, with limited success. I may not have had it set up properly, and I didn't devote a lot of time to it. I ended up reverting to the old setup, and leaving the cd drive as IDE. If you get it working, I'd be interested to hear how you did it. - -D - -- pgp key: http://www.tuxfan.homeip.net:8080/pgpkey.txt - -- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE8Q3IfeMAUbzJhSVcRAivqAJ9AS26cACux/n98cwvclG2faLvD9ACghQ7i VJGHggcGpgnW2ETw9NnMwpg= =Sna8 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
