Again, not sure if this has anything to do with my problem (I am not using ISDN or PCMCIA), but it needs fixing at some point.
It doesn't have anything to do with with your ZIP drive.
Parallel Port Address = Auto Parallel Port Status = LPT1 378 IRQ7
First of all, try setting Port Address to a fixed value, e.g. 378.
I have set "Parallel Port Address" to LPT1 378 IRQ7, still does not work...
Hmm, do you also have a parallel printer? If yes, try hooking it up to the port *instead* of the drive and print something directly to the port, e.g. 'cat /etc/fstab > /dev/lp0'. That would at least show if the port is working at all. BTW, what's the output of 'uname -a' on that machine?
Imm.o: init_module: Device or Resource Busy. Does this mean I have a conflict?
Not necessarily. You'll get that message also if no device is detected.
Also the Zip drive is a Zip250, not a Zip100. I can only find info on the web about connecting a Zip100 drive under Linux, and the Zip250 requires different drivers under Windows, is is actually supported?
I just don't know. I only have the parallel ZIP 100 and an internal ATAPI
ZIP 100. You could try contacting the author of the ppa/imm driver and ask
him. Otherwise I'm out of ideas at the moment.
