You need to completely rebuild the system. I believe that approach will demote my system from 2.2-stable to 2.2.whatever-current. I checked the mailing list and some said their GoldStar worked with 2.2.x and some said otherwise. I had been using Matcd driver until I inherited a 85% new system from a friend (with another 6X Goldstar CDROM -- I had one before which never worked under 2.1.5). I am not sure if the drive is PNP or non-PNP. Anyways, I was just guessing -current provides newer drivers. Just curious about incorperating new drivers into existing code: how'd you guys do it without a patch code? I mean, I would assume many files are involved (in addition to atapi.c, atapi.h, wcd.c, etc.) I am connecting the drive to the master of WDC1 if that helps.
