It connects to the PC via a USB cord. I'm trying to figure out how to mount the DVR on my Gentoo Linux box. I'm using gentoo-sources-2.6.13-r3, and udev-070-r1 as my dev file system. Since I suspect that it probably works similarly to the ubiquitous USB flash drives, I tried to configure my kernel to support them. I built in SCSI disk support, SCSI emulation, USB support, and USB storage support. Still, it doesn't work. Am I missing any drivers that are needed to support USB flash drives? Where might I find a USB flash drive under /dev? Is there anything extra that might be needed to support a digital voice recorder? Please CC my address (kkerwin@insightbb.com) in your response. Thanks in advance for your help! Kris Kerwin kkerwin@insightbb.com -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
