Well, this may not quite be the appropriate place to ask this, but I have
found this list very helpful in understanding how to get my parallel
devices to work with my Twinhead slimnote 5100c laptop (6 year old
486dx4-100mhz).  I have a parallel backpack cdrom and a 100mb zip drive,
and a scsi orb drive.  I was having so much trouble with the cdrom and zip
drive, I bought the Orb drive with a scsi adapter to increase my speed
and storage capacity.  I also bought an I/O slice adapter with a scsi2
port.  Unfortunately, it does not seem to be supported by linux!  When
installing the dos driver, it finds an Adaptec AIC-6360 Family Adapter -
Port 340h.  I noticed there is scsi support for the AIC 7xxx adapters.  Is
there any way to get the AIC-6360 to work with linux?  
Do you have any other port suggestions as to how I might be able to use
the orb drive?  
After installing parport, paride, and on26, I tried the pd module but I
just get the resource busy message.
Thanks,
matthew
