I am having trouble with two different USB thumbdrives. One is an old
Kanguru Microdrive and the other is a new Ultra MP3 player. Both have
internal memory, but both also have an SD slot, and that is where the
problem is.
The internal memory is recognized, I see it mentioned in
/var/log/messages, and I can mount it. A card in the SD slot,
however, is not recogized, there is no mention in /var/log/messages..
When I plug either unit into an old Redhat 9 machine I see both
devices on both units, and can mount both the internal memory and the
SD cards.
I did some Googling and tried putting "options scsi_mod max_luns=5" in
/etc/modules.conf (yes, I put it in the right /etc/modules.d/i386 file
and made sure it appeared in modules.conf). This didn't work (at
minimum) because the drivers were not compiled as modules. So I tried
recompiling my kernel with some likely drivers compiled as
modules--but now the internel memory is no longer recognized on either
unit.
What is the right Gentoo way to do it?
Thanks,
-kb
