/dev/uba in 2.6.9 and 2.6.10 and cdrecord
Hi,
I have an external ATAPI<->USB adapter with a DVD writer, so I can burn
by using my USB interface.
In 2.6.8 and preceeding, this device was mounted as a SCSI device, getting
a device node /dev/sr0 and a SCSI ID.
With kernel 2.6.9 and 2.6.10, my device is mounted as /dev/uba, and is not
recognized as an optical drive. I can mount CD's/DVD's (although I have to
repeat the mount command in order to get it mounted), but cdrecord doesn't
see the device.
Debug message is attached below.
Is the uba driver still in a beta stase, or is cdrecord not ready yet for
these kind of usb devices?
Thanks in advance,
Sebastiaan
