Can you give me the brand names and models, and those of you in the US get the FCC ID numbers off the label? (for those who don't know, the first three characters of the FCC ID identify the entity that paid to have it certified, usually the real manufacturer.) FWIW, I have a brand-new Toshiba 32X, running on a late-December -stable kernel, and it works fine, though it's a bit pokey duriung the detection stage at boot. Oh, and it doesn't produce that strange "phantom-slave" problem that some people have reported (and that I had with my old Mitsumi 2x); my suspicion of weirdness in the old Oak OTI-011 IDE chip may be right. -- Lee C. -- Manassas, VA, USA (WakkyMouse on DALnet #watertower) A!
