PostPosted: Tue Feb 20, 2007 5:02 am    Post subject: [SOLVED] jmicron pata cdrom missing Reply with quote

I have just recently upgraded to gentoo sources 2.6.19-r5, from using no-sources 2.6.18-no2. It seems that during this process, my pata cdrom drive is no longer being detected. I had been using no-sources from reccomendations by various users that it provided good jmicron pata/sata support. I prefer to stay away from experimental stuff, so I figured I'd give the latest stable gentoo-sources a shot. However although I have the PATA Jmicron driver compiled in (under the new ATA section), my cdrom drive isn't showing up in /dev. My device configuration is exactly as I had it before, so I'm lost as to what the problem could be... Here's some info about my setup:

[SOLVED]Kernel-2.6.20: What is the best settings for GA-DS4 shows that ahci (<*> AHCI SATA support) is the driver for the two Intel chipsets (4 port and 2 port SATA controllers) and the JMicron SATA controller and pata_jmicron (< > JMicron PATA support) or JMicron IDE (< > JMicron JMB36x support under ATA/ATAPI/MFM/RLL support) for the JMicron IDE controller.

drivers/ata/pata_jmicron.c and drivers/ide/pci/jmicron.c are probably the same as they are written by the same person and both are copyright 2006.

Perhaps you won't be able to get away from "experimental" kernels for a bit: you might try 2.6.20-gentoo to see if the jmicron PATA driver in that one works.

The new libata version sees all your drives (including optical drives) as scsi interfaces. If you want to enable your PATA CD-ROM to show up, in addition to the PATA JMicron controller, you should enable the following:
Code:
Device Drivers  --->
   SCSI device support  -->
      <*> SCSI CDROM support

Then, your CD-ROM should show up under /dev/srN.

bubbl07,

I don't think I have that set, I'll try it out once I get home tonight.

Otherwise I'll test out 2.6.20-gentoo following wynn's advice.

Lately it seems to be the little things that cause the biggest problems... Adding SCSI cdrom support fixed everything.

Thanks to you both for your help. Its people like you that make using Gentoo a really great experience! :D

Glad it worked for you, MMTrigger.

I was hitting my head against the keyboard for a while trying to get it to work, glad you didn't have to do the same!
