My video camera's HDD is auto discovered this way, and then I just copy over the files, from /media/ to where I want them. I have fat, vfat and ntfs supported by compiling into the kernel. It helps and most things I plug into a usb port that are intended for doz, just pop up, via ivman... If that does not work, there is a book out about 'Hacking the Cable Modem'. It may give you some ideas.... The author is DerEngel. Never looked at the book, so I cannot tell you if it will be useful. good hunting... James -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
