Hi all and Richard
Thought I'd mail this one to the list, by way of an introduction.
I've just solved a scsi emulation problem I was having - not 100% sure
of which action I took fixed it, but I recompiled my kernel
(2.6.4-rc1-mm2) with some additional options and it seems to have cured
the problem where E-UAE wasn't seeing my ATAPI cdrom as a device.
Anyway, I modified the kernel adding in these options -
1. Under "Bus Options", I added "Legacy /proc/pci interface"
2. In the ATA/ATAPI drivers section, I added (back in) "generic/default
IDE chipset support"
3. In the SCSI device support section, I added "legacy /proc/scsi/ support"
4. Also in the SCSI section, I added (back in) "SCSI generic support"
I don't know which one (or combination) fixed the problem, but it's
working again.
Oh and if there are any Gentoo users out there, you should find a new
UAE ebuild which depends on a new CAPS ebuild courtesy of David Holm.
I've not synced yet to confirm this but it should have propagated
through to the mirrors by the time I do it later tonight. The new UAE
ebuilds have been cobbled together by myself and David, so any
problems/suggestions (pref the latter) can be directed here.
Cheers,
Jonathan
