Sorry , my numbers were wrong, the problem is with 9.2, worked with 9.1
My floppy is read only, all the time, regardless of floppy or how tab is set Suse 9.2 always sees it a write protected drive
currently using this from /etc/fstab:
/dev/fd0 /media/floppy auto noauto,user,sync 0 0
orginally I had this in /etc/fstab and only root could mount or umount floppy and most operations attempts gave an error that it was not allowed with protocol drives.
/dev/fd0 /media/floppy subfs fs=floppyfss,procuid,nodev,nosuid,sync 0 0
neither works properly
I've got this setup on 9.2 and it works OK read / write: $ ls -l /media | grep floppy drwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 2005-03-30 12:12 floppy in /etc/fstab: /dev/fd0 /media/floppy subfs fs=floppyfss,procuid,nodev,nosuid,sync 0 0
anyone know what the fix it- as with my Umaxs 1220s scanner everything worked ok with SuSE 8.0, and 9.1 (BTW: still have problems with the Umax 1220s scanner not working, gave up on that one, can reboot to SuSE 9.1 to use the scanner)
My Epson 2450 Photo now works exactly every other time I call upon it ...
thanks in advance
