Description John Herzfeld 2003-04-29 09:49:09 UTC
I just "upgraded" from ac-sources-2.4.21-rc1-r1
(which shows up as 2.4.21-rc1-ac1) to 
ac-sources-2.4.21-rc1-r2  (which sows up as 2.4.21-rc1-ac2)

I am running on a dell x200 laptop which has a firewire cd drive.
To get the drive running you need to load some firewire modules and some scsi
modules.

Under rc1-ac1 everything worked just fine.  I then used the exact same .config
file  (well not exactly the same, I started up xmenuconfig made no changes and
then saved it)


 and now under rc1-ac2, I have nothing listed under /dev/scsi and nothing listed
under /dev/cdroms

When I run dmesg, it looks like everything is being loaded,

Other info:
I am running devfsd-1.3.25-r3

ac-sources is not patched nor maintained by gentoo. reports bugs to the linux kernel mailing list.
