I have an NEC 4x4 CD Changer (NEC-CD 251) and I've run into a weird problem. I was using eject -c (slot#), had a set of scripts for selecting each CD. Only problem is, it couldn't change to Disc0, and it reported this:
"Use CDROM_SELECT_FROMSLOT instead of CDROM_SELECT" or something similar.
I believe this is what is keeping it from using disc0 (slot0), but I'm not sure. I went through cdrom.c for a while, and I couldn't find the call to CDROM_SELECT or whatever it was (I don't have Linux at home right now; the drive it was on choked, I'm having the data restored, tho.) Is there a patch out there for this problem? If not, any ideas where to look besides cdrom.c? I'm considering adding it in the config scripts as a "non-ide or scsi" CD-ROM due to the fact that it requires this foolish thing in the firmware. Thanks for your help
