Hello,

   Does anyone know if there is a Linux driver for the following CD ROM
drive:

         Phillips LMSI CM205 CD-ROM (375ms access, 150KB/S transfer,
                                      IDE drive, MPC and High Sierra compatible,
                                      not Kodak multisession compatible)

   Or is anyone currently working on such a driver ? (I've checked on the
hardware compatibility list and the drive is not there. I think my list is
old though as I was unable to find one dated beyond March 29.)

   If such a driver does not exist and no one is working on it, how hard
is it for someone that never wrote a driver to write their own driver using the
examples already provided for linux as a guideline ?

Thanks in advance,

Eric
