For some month now I have been trying to get my hp 8200 usb cd writer to work. I have been to various web page, man page etc, but nothing seems to do anything. Although I have got answers such as my usb cdrw works fine, I can't get any pointers. My question is this. From everything i've read it seems that usb uses the scsi bus to communicate with umass devices. I say this since on the openbsd web programmer reference pages I found this reference: umass at uhub? scsibus at umass? Also in some references it seems that certain usb cd are internally scsi or ide. I was unable to find any documentation as to what mine maybe. Anyone know of a way to do so? So in short, if my cd isn't internally a scsi drive is it safe to say that it will not work with FreeBSD now. -- Rod http://storm.prohosting.com/osbeef/osbeef.htm '....musical rhthyms can mess with your head...' - T La Rock "It's your's" Rod http://storm.prohosting.com/osbeef/osbeef.htm '....musical rhthyms can mess with your head...' - T La Rock "It's your's" Rod http://storm.prohosting.com/osbeef/osbeef.htm '....musical rhthyms can mess with your head...' - T La Rock "It's your's" Rod http://storm.prohosting.com/osbeef/osbeef.htm '....musical rhthyms can mess with your head...' - T La Rock "It's your's" To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hardware" in the body of the message
