- Hello netters.
-
- Could someone help me with this?
-
- I am using CD FUSSION from NEC. I would like to use this
- drive within Linux (SLS 1.0 but with XFree86 2.1 not 2.0.)
- I recompiled the kernel with CDROM support ON. But each time
- I boot up, Linux reports "cdrom drive(0)". Does it mean
- the CD FUSSION is not supported under Linux?
-
- I downloaded WORKMAN and XCDPLAYER-NEC from tsx-11. Both
- complained missing device entries. WORKMAN could not find
- /dev/sr0 and XCDPLAYER could not find /dev/scd0. I followed
- the README and used the following command to create /dev/scd0:
-
- mknod -m 500 /dev/scd0 b 11 0
-
- But got the same complains. Any suggestion?
-
