There are two different versions of xcdplayer here, one that
|
|
works (or is supposed to work) with scsi-2 drives, and a second
|
|
version that will only work with NEC drives.
|
|
|
|
The NEC version is known to work - I have it going as I type
|
|
this. My project for this afternoon is to pick up a couple of little
|
|
speakers to put next to my monitor, since my headphone cables are not
|
|
quite long enough.
|
|
|
|
The scsi-2 version would appear to need some work since we are
|
|
still missing a couple of kernel ioctl functions. I would like
|
|
someone with a scsi-2 drive to pick this up and get it working,
|
|
because it is hard for me to do this when I cannot try it out. If you
|
|
would like to give it a shot, let me know. I can tell you what needs
|
|
to be done, and we may be able to borrow some of the code from the
|
|
NEC. The NEC implements all of the ioctls in a user-mode program
|
|
which makes use of one special ioctl that lets us format commands and
|
|
send them directly to the drive. Ultimately this belongs in the
|
|
kernel for the scsi-2 drives.
