Re: CD-reader on SONY VAIO SR27K
Hi!
Last week I asked for suggestions on how to get the SONY
CD-reader to work with my SONY VAIO SR27K. (Copy below.)
Werner Heuser suggested I look at dmesg. Henry Margies
asked what /var/log/syslog says when I insert the
cd-reader.
Here is what /var/log/syslog says:
---------------------------------------------------------------
Feb 15 09:10:15 hypathia cardmgr[336]: socket 0: Ninja ATA
Feb 15 09:10:15 hypathia kernel: cs: memory probe 0xa0000000-0xa0ffffff: clean.
Feb 15 09:10:15 hypathia cardmgr[336]: executing: 'modprobe ide_cs'
Feb 15 09:10:16 hypathia cardmgr[336]: get dev info on socket 0 failed: Resource temporarily unavailable
---------------------------------------------------------------
Below is what dmesg says.
I have scratched my head as to the meaning of these,
but am drawing a blank. I have also looked again at
www.linux-laptop.net, where new architectures were posted
this week. But again no ideas.
Any help gratefully appreciated.

Subject: CD-reader on SONY VAIO SR27K
I have Debian 3.0 on a SONY VAIO PCG-SR27K.
I am unable to get the Sony CD reader (PCGA-CD51/A)
that attaches via the PCMCIA slot to work under
Debian.
Looking at the suggestions for related architectures
on www.linux-laptop.net, it is suggested that
/cdrom is improperly linked to /dev/hde and should
be linked to /dev/hdc. So I have done
rm /dev/cdrom
ln -s /dev/hdc /dev/cdrom
My /etc/fstab has the following entry
/dev/cdrom /cdrom iso9660 defaults,ro,user,noauto 0 0
Yet when I do 'mount /cdrom' (when the CD-reader is
plugged in and a CD is in the CD-reader) all I get is
mount: /dev/cdrom is not a valid block device
What else should I look at? Any suggestions gratefully
accepted.
