1. Genesys 6 in 1 card reader (intern) |
|
|
I bought a Genesyscard reader and it works with eCS only when I connect it after boot.. Because its a build in card reader and gets connected on the main board its realy a problem.. I made myself an on/off switch on it to overcome this problem, but its not great, now a switch sticks out in front and not everyone can do this. I did read on the USB site more card reader have this boot problem.. when its connected at boot they don't work well.. I tried all switches and many versions of USB drivers (also the CW ones).. nothing works.. If someone has a usefull hint.. I would be very happy:-)) Chris. |

When its connected (on) during boot, refresh does nothing. When I (re)connect it after boot then refresh works like it suppose to do, but with the newest mass storage driver refresh is no longer needed, I just put in a card and it gets mounted but as I said before, it has to be connected after boot.. I think during boot it does not get recognised as a removable media, because when there is a card in it during boot I can read this card only.. when I reject the drive then its impossable to refresh/remount it again and when I remove the card I get big problems.. When there is no card in it during boot I can do nothing with it, refresh does nothing (/FORCE_TO_REMOVEABLE has no effect also) Only when its (re)connected after boot all works perfect and even when I remove a card it gets recognised and gives a message of possible data lost.. |

| My enlight card reader does this too, however if I remove the media, put it back in and hit refresh (sometimes a couple of times) it finds it fine.. it just sometimes takes a bit of time.. had this same problem in windows with it however doesn't seem to be OS/2 specific. |

For windows it has a CD with drivers and it works. but windows use a different protocol, I get four extra (floppy?) drives called SD,SM,CF and MS (with drive letters of course), after I put in a card I can open the correct 'floppy' There is no mounting and unmounting.. I highly prefere the eCS/OS2 protocol mounting only when needed and I don't have to figure out what 'floppy' of 4 to open.. Grts Chris. |

The new IBM USB (from ecomstaion (use ftp) or from IBM upgrade protection (unfortunately:-) ) solved this problem!! And it finds more devices...PS I was Chrissie (once) but don't remember this password... . In fact..

I'm in the same position for at least one site. But, one of the changes in Mozilla 1.7b is that the Password Manager can show the passwords.

Chris, How You do this ? I have 7in1 Genesys reader (ID:0x0927) and latest IBM USBMD (10.035) - and nothing. USBRES recognize my card reader, but after inserting 256MB SD card nothing happens. Order of reader attaching/card inserting doesn't matter - it simply doesn't work. Are You using any special switches with USBMSD, or any non standard drivers ?
I made also some tests with CW USBMSD v1.2b. Using it with IBMRSCSI.FLT & /FORCE_TO_REMOVABLE gives possibility to use my SD card but only one card at system up (for reading another card i need reboot system - there is no effect by refresh after card change). BTW: Is IBMRSCSI.FLT driver required if USBRES reporting "SCSI transparent command set" in DevInfo ? |

You need to have USBmon in your startup folder.. The settup should do this for you.. If not you can use refresh media.. This is my config lineBASEDEV=USBMSD.ADD /FLOPPIES:0 /REMOVABLES:2 /FIXED_DISKS:0 /FORCE_TO_REMOVABLE You need the latest USB from eCS or IBM usbs10135.zip (24-3-04) With the CW version and older IBM versions you have to reconnect the reader wich is difficult when its build in... Also I have not any problems with sweex flash stick 128 Mb.. But this one only works with the latest IBM and CW. Chris |

| Chris, All drivers are up-to-date. After changing number removables from 1 to 2, SD card become avaliable for r/w. But problem with lack of refresh when card is changed remains. In other words - it looks like my Genensys 7in1 card reader isn't reporting ot OS that card is removed. But why "Refresh removable media" isn't working - I don't understand, (afterall this command is polling device instead waiting for event from device). I wonder - is it working all ok in Your 6in1 case ? |

It works OK.. But it does take a while before I get the popup "drive available" About 1-2 minuters.. The flash pen is faster. Maybe refresh is faster also.. I didn't try it yet.. |

Folks, when you say "latest drivers", can you *please* be more specific, latest is a relative term, absolute terms are far more informative, such as: Driver version: 10.135 File: USBMSD.EXE Size: 189123bytes Source: http://www.os2warp.be/...People get drivers from many sources & often have to cross-check that their source is what the author is talking about. |

last updated at 30 Apr, 2004 13:56 (1 times) Ok, I did figure out some things.. First of all the USBEHCD.SYS makes problems, when you only have only ehcd ports it wont work, I have one ehcd port and 'accidentially' used it it did make a lot of problems so I remmed the USBEHCD.SYS in config.sys.. I still have 7 ports left wich are ohcd.. And on an 'older' PC I have only uhcd and these also work greatSecondly in the /REMOVABLES:4 line you have to put one number higher as you intend to use, it seems the first one is unaccescable, maybe reserved, maybe a bug? I figured this out with the benchmark program when I wanted to bench my flash drives.. no matter what card/stick I use and what slot I use, it always starts with the second drive.. the first one keeps undefined always.. So with a value of 2, I could only use one flash at the same time, with 3 I can use 2 simultaniously .. ect.. Chris.. |
