usb cdr drive

[daniel]

i checked out /proc/bus/usb/devices
and aside from it having a 0byte file size [weird]
it had the following greek contents:

T:  Bus=01 Lev=00 Prnt=00 Port=00 Cnt=00 Dev#=  1 Spd=12  MxCh= 2
B:  Alloc=  0/900 us ( 0%), #Int=  0, #Iso=  0
D:  Ver= 1.10 Cls=09(hub  ) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS= 8 #Cfgs=  1
P:  Vendor=0000 ProdID=0000 Rev= 0.00
S:  Product=USB OHCI Root Hub
S:  SerialNumber=c8853000
C:* #Ifs= 1 Cfg#= 1 Atr=40 MxPwr=  0mA
I:  If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 1 Cls=09(hub  ) Sub=00 Prot=00 Driver=hub
E:  Ad=81(I) Atr=03(Int.) MxPS=   2 Ivl=255ms
T:  Bus=01 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=01 Cnt=01 Dev#= 11 Spd=12  MxCh= 0
D:  Ver= 1.00 Cls=00(>ifc ) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS=64 #Cfgs=  1
P:  Vendor=04e6 ProdID=0101 Rev= 2.00
S:  Manufacturer=Shuttle Technology Inc.
S:  Product=E-USB Bridge
C:* #Ifs= 1 Cfg#= 1 Atr=40 MxPwr=  0mA
I:  If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 3 Cls=ff(vend.) Sub=00 Prot=00 Driver=usb-storage
E:  Ad=01(O) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS=  64 Ivl=  0ms
E:  Ad=82(I) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS=  64 Ivl=  0ms
E:  Ad=83(I) Atr=03(Int.) MxPS=   2 Ivl= 32ms

also
i checked /var/log/messages
and all i get is this when i connect:

  kernel: hub.c: USB new device connect on bus1/2, assigned device number 10

and this when i disconnect:

  kernel: usb.c: USB disconnect on device 10

there's no mention of the cd drive
or what it's called
or how to access it.

it's a sony spressa usb cdr drive
quite old (only 2x)
is it possible that linux doesn't support it?

Hi Daniel,

If you have mounted the usbfs aka. usbdevfs filesystem you should be able to
see if your cdr is connected. I think that RH7.2 should do so by default.

Take a look at /proc/bus/usb/devices. Your CDR should show up there.
I think you should be able to find the same information in the KDE Control
Panel under Information USB devices.

Also you should be able to see if the usb device is found by the kernel in
/var/log/messages when you plug it in.

I hope this helps,

Anders Lyckegaard
