Dropped this on teh Linux PowerEdge List as well, but maybe the local LUGgers have an idea. :) I'm running Ubuntu Hoary on a Power Edge 750 with a SATA RAID card (aacraid). Everything is working great except for the CD-RW drive is not being detected. I'm running kernel 2.6.11-1-686 (Ubuntu provided kernel.) I've found other references to this problem, but I haven't discovered the resoultion as of yet, and I'd like to use my CD-RW. Right now I just need to read data. CD burning wouldn't hurt though. -- Andrew S. Zbikowski | http://andy.zibnet.us SELECT * FROM users WHERE clue >0; 0 rows returned
