Hi, I got a pioneer scsi dvd-rom (DVD-U03S) today as a present, and it works great as a generic scsi cd-rom (of course), but how's the support for it in the dvd area? (I haven't tried DVDs yet since I haven't got any). -- Mvh / Greetings Andreas-Johann Ulvestad Linux/UNIX Systems Consultant President, Norwegian Linux Community

(I haven't tried DVDs yet since I haven't got any). Depends on your kernel version. For 2.3, you're fine. For 2.2.* you need to grab the patch from my web site. 2.2.13: grab nov7-2.2.diff, listed Nov 9 2.2.14-pre: just grab the newest one. -- * Jens Axboe <axboe@image.dk> * Linux CD-ROM Maintainer * http://www.kernel.dk

Once again, I'm using a Pioneer drive (DVD-303 according to /proc/scsi/scsi). The kernel I'm using is 2.3.31. I have added support for everything mentioning CDROM in the kernel config, but I don't get any cdrom.o file (is this needed?). I do however get the ufs and udf modules and can load these successfully. The problem is that I get the error message 'GetASF failed' when trying tstdvd, etc (yes, I ran reset before). I couldn't find any help on any websites or in the README files. :-) -- Mvh / Greetings Andreas-Johann Ulvestad Linux/UNIX Systems Consultant President, Norwegian Linux Community

You only get the cdrom.o module if you choose a modular SCSI CD-ROM driver. > The problem is that I get the error message 'GetASF failed' when trying > tstdvd, etc (yes, I ran reset before).
