packetwriting on a parallel cdwriter?
Hi, Is it possible to do packetwriting on a parallel CD-Writer such as the HP 7510e? Kernel is 2.4.19 I compiled the pktcdvd.o module and the UDF file format but I get a error when I do this: pktsetup /dev/pktcdvd0 /dev/pcd0 gives me this: drive not ready :Function not implemented Thanks in advance Guy Forssman
Was the /dev/pktcdvd0 device already there? Maybe you want to try moving/removing it and using mknod /dev/pktcdvd0 b 97 0 and then run pktsetup again. -Leo On Thu, 2002-09-12 at 09:26, Guy Forssman wrote:

Hi Leo, Thanks for replying so quickly. I tried your solution but got the same error. I posted this problem on the linux-parport@torque.net list. Stephen Mollett who is also actif on this list told me that this function (packet writing to a parallel writer ) is not yet implemented. Is somebody working on this? thanks in advance Guy Forssman Op do 12-09-2002, om 19:32 schreef Leo Przybylski:

More accurately, for the record, I said that after a quick skim through the patch and a glance at the kernel source, it looked like there was nothing in the patch that seemed to relate to pcd devices. As I think I surmised (IIRC) to Guy, given that pcd's are basically ATAPI devices attached to a parallel-port ATA interface, it might not be beyond the realms of possibility for someone with a good knowledge of the kernel and of ATAPI to hack together some sort of experimental support based on the existing ATAPI CD rewriter support. <think style="out_loud"> Or is there some sort of paride-scsi thing anywhere out there? Kind of like ide-scsi but for paride ATAPI devices... </think> Stephen
Hi There, If I understand the manuals correctly cdrecord uses the pg.o module to wright to these devices. However the manual also says on page 2 that PD is for a IDE disk, PCD for a ATAPI CD-ROM, PF for a ATAPI disk, PT for a ATAPI tape and PG for ATAPI generic devices. The pg driver exists mainly to support paralel port ATAPI CD-R and CD-RW devices. Then there's a link to http://gear.torque.net/parport/cdr.html where on the 4 paragraph you can read "YOU CANNOT MOUNT PG devices" I think there's the problem. Can the community modify maybe the pg, pcd or another driver so the guy's with a LAPTOP can do packetwriting through the paralel port? thanks in advance Guy Forssman But they use Op vr 13-09-2002, om 00:15 schreef Ben Fennema:

How is cdrecord used on these devices?
