VMware / Syquest

[Bryce C]

I've never gotten my parport0 to work no matter what combination of /dev
and modules un/loaded which is a real bum because i've got a syquest
1.5Gb parallel  which only works on win9x.  Anyone get theirs to work in
linux.  I've found lots of questions but no answers googling.

Also i have an 8 gig partition on my disk that i use for mp3's is there a way to have VMware see that partition as an extra drive and write to it and have it mounted in linux so i can play my MP3's? i need it to do that because i use KaZaa to download my mp3's(the spyware free version) and havent been able to get it to work in wine =/ Thanks in advance for any help.
