'ello, everyone. I've been racking my brain out about this
problem, and I'm hoping someone on the list can help out. I've
searched around the archives for similar problems, and found a few,
but no solutions offered worked for me. So here goes.
I've got a Philips CDD-3610 CD Burner I'd like to hook up to my
Linux box, currently running kernel 2.4.4-ac4. Before I do anything,
here's my module list (just stuff for my sound card):
> [root@gaia /root]# lsmod
> Module Size Used by
> cs4232 3056 0
> uart401 6096 0 [cs4232]
> ad1848 16560 0 [cs4232]
The CDD-3610 uses the EPAT protocol, and everything looks good when
I modprobe that module:
> [root@gaia /root]# modprobe epat
> [root@gaia /root]# lsmod
> Module Size Used by
> epat 6048 0 (unused)
> paride 3712 1 [epat]
> parport 13760 0 [paride]
> cs4232 3056 0
> uart401 6096 0 [cs4232]
> ad1848 16560 0 [cs4232]
When I try to load the pg module, however, things go haywire:
> [root@gaia /root]# insmod pg drive0=0x378,0
> Using /lib/modules/2.4.4-ac4/kernel/drivers/block/paride/pg.o
> /lib/modules/2.4.4-ac4/kernel/drivers/block/paride/pg.o: init_module: Operation not permitted
> Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters
The output from dmesg looks okay up until that point as well:
> [root@gaia /root]# dmesg | tail
> paride: version 1.06 installed (parport)
> paride: epat registered as protocol 0
> pg: pg version 1.02, major 97
> PnPBIOS: Parport found PNPBIOS PNP0401 at io=0378,0778 irq=7 dma=3
> parport0: PC-style at 0x378, irq 7 [PCSPP(,...)]
> pg0: Adapter not found
> pg: No ATAPI device detected
Just to be sure, I checked to make sure that 0x378 was the correct
address of my parallel port, and that /dev/pg0 was set up properly,
and it looks like everything is:
> [root@gaia /root]# ls -l /dev/pg0
> crw------- 1 root sys 97, 0 Apr 17 1999 /dev/pg0
> [root@gaia /root]# cat /proc/ioports | grep parport
> 0378-037a : parport0
Can anyone help me out with this? Many thanks
in advance . . .
