I am also fairly new to the linux = community which will explain any mistakes I make... "Fingers crossed" Any, if anyone = else is running either SuSE 7.1 or 7.2 I would appreciate a response to my following = questions: 1st: I cannot seen to get either SuSE 7.1 or 7.2 to recognize either = of my CD R/RW's. I have a Iomega Zip 8x4x32 and a HP 9100i 8x4x32... I have installed = SuSE using either one my cd r/rw separately.. (I do not have the both installed at = the same time but switched them) . I have tried to setup ide-scsi immulation = but to no avail. Any help on setting up either one of these cd r/rw's would be = appreciated. 2nd: I have a HP 6300 usb scanner. SuSE shows the scanner = connected/registered via usb but Xsane will not recognize my usb scanner... Any suggestions = on this issue?
