Hello,
Thanks for you're input...
This reply is a bit late, but I tried to get an iomega
working before... unfortunately, that's a nightmare
because I need a new kernel for that, and my custom
kernel is wrong each time with a weird kernel panic I
personally really don't understand :-(
Anyway, the alsa-source isn't an option as it needs a
custom kernel too, and the 2.4.20 kernel isn't in one
of the 6 debian cds I've got; I sure hope it's in the
last one, otherwise I really don't know how to get
that sound working.. The laptop is not connected to
the internet so what could I do ???
If you've got any options I've overlooked please tell
me !!
thanks,
Joris
