[linux-usb] Close to a solution. Please help !

[Dunlap, Randy]

Hi Daniel,

I don't see anything that is obviously wrong in the
linux/.config file.

The recent advice from Joseph Fannin looks good.
Have you tried it?  (except change:
  alias char-major-8 sd_mod
to
  alias block-major-8 sd_mod
)

Give us a list of modules that are loaded when you connect
the Zip drive.

Switching to the main linux tree is likely just to give
you/us a different set of problems, but I'm just guessing
that based on Brad Hards's comments.

For USB source file comparisons, all of my 2.3.99-pre6-5
unzipped .c files are dated between Mar. 10 and Apr. 21, 2000.
None from the Jan.-Feb. timeframe as you listed.
There have been beaucoups changes in this time, especially
to the usb-storage driver.

~Randy
