Hi,

I download this linux driver software from Samsung website:

20050125183643281_DriversPack-1.0.156.tar.gz

This driver works fine with Suse 9.0 (kernel 2.4)

But don't work with Suse 9.2 (kernel 2.6)

Instalations hangs at 99% and kernel shows errors in /var/log/messages:

What's wrong???

What has Samsung support told you so far? It would appear the the library file has a problem with 2.6 kernels. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998
