I am having trouble with two different USB thumbdrives. One is an old |
| 2 |
Kanguru Microdrive and the other is a new Ultra MP3 player. Both have |
| 3 |
internal memory, but both also have an SD slot, and that is where the |
| 4 |
problem is. |

The internal memory is recognized, I see it mentioned in |
| 7 |
/var/log/messages, and I can mount it. A card in the SD slot, |
| 8 |
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 |
| 11 |
devices on both units, and can mount both the internal memory and the |
| 12 |
SD cards. |

I did some Googling and tried putting "options scsi_mod max_luns=5" in |
| 15 |
/etc/modules.conf (yes, I put it in the right /etc/modules.d/i386 file |
| 16 |
and made sure it appeared in modules.conf). This didn't work (at |
| 17 |
minimum) because the drivers were not compiled as modules. So I tried |
| 18 |
recompiling my kernel with some likely drivers compiled as |
| 19 |
modules--but now the internel memory is no longer recognized on either |
| 20 |
unit. |

What is the right Gentoo way to do it? |
