Hi,
I've happily compiled a 2.0.33 kernel with the options I want, most
importantly PowerTec support. It seems to recognise the card, but by
that time the drive has spun down, so it gets nowhere. I get something
like this (this is what /var/log/messages had to say after I tried it as
a module). Any ideas?
