No one has replied to my previous post so maybe I should try saying it a different way... Has anyone had any luck at all getting a SATA optical drive to work under linux. It is listed when I boot my machine and works under windows but I have yet to find anyone having any luck. I have read linuxquestions.org and googled a lot but the only fix I can find is to change the /include/linux/libata.h line that says #undef ata_enable_atapi to #define ata_enable_atapi. Has anyone tried this ? Maybe no one here is using any sata optical drives so cannot help me.... I am using a Plextor 716SA drive on a Via 8237 Southbridge Sata controller. Please get back to me if anyone has any information ~wd0mkr --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change you mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
