Drivers Y-e Data



Water quality data were acquired from national, state, and local sources. The goal was to compile the most comprehensive data set possible to assess the status and trends of water quality of rivers in the conterminous U.S. This goal was achieved through a long process of data vetting, harmonization, checking, and quality assurance/quality control. This package supports the following driver models: Y-E DATA External FDD (Libretto) Full Specifications. What's new in version 1998-08-28. Release August 26, 2008. Date Added August 28, 1998. I changed this to unsolved. I got a 3.5 floppy drive from Amazon, a 'Y E Data' drive. I get a Code 10 in the device manager. It can't find a driver. The BIOS in my Z170 motherboard properly detects it. The only place I found a 'supposed' driver is one of the pay for driver sites and I refuse to use them. Libretto Floppy driver A driver for Y-E Data Incorporated PC-Card Floppy Drive David Bateman Christian Gennerat Version 2.03 INTRODUCTION This driver is for use with the Y-E Data Incorporated FlashBuster PC-Card floppy drive. These are commonly found on the Toshiba Librettos and are available as a separate product (at least in Japan).

Drivers Catalog ⇒ Y-E Data USB Floppy Our database contains 2 drivers for Y-E Data USB Floppy. For uploading the necessary driver, select it from the list and click on ‘Download’ button. Please, assure yourself in the compatibility of the selected driver with your current OS just to guarantee its correct and efficient work.

This driver is for use with the Y-E Data Incorporated FlashBusterPC-Card floppy drive. These are commonly found on the Toshiba Librettosand are available as a separate product (at least in Japan).

This driver was written by DavidBateman on his Libretto 50, so the only machine he'll vouch for itworking on is his own. However it should work without difficulty on anyof the Libretto machines. This code was developed on a linux 2.0.34kernel, and later ported to a 2.1.122 kernel.

It has been upgraded for 2.2 and 2.4 kernels by Christian Gennerat.

For most floppy disk controllers (FDC's) data is sent between theCPU and the FDC using a DMA channel. However the PCMCIA 2.0/2.1standard doesn't support DMA transfers, and consequently data must be
written to the FlashBuster with programmed I/O (PIO). The linux kernelsfloppy driver doesn't support PIO, and so this new method ofcommunicating with FDC's is added to the floppy driver.

Unfortunately, as it stands, the linux floppy driver assumes thatall FDC's will use the same means of communicating. Hence the fact thatthe FlashBuster uses a different method of talking to the FDC limitsthe floppy driver from supporting a FlashBuster and another FDC at thesame time. In addition supporting two FDC's is further complicated bythe issue of sharing the interrupt line (IRQ) between the two FDC's.Working around these problems will require a significant level ofalteration to the floppy driver, which I might do
at a future date.

Installation

Debian Woody

Drivers Y-e DataOn debian Woody (3.0) with DEVFS active, you must create the devicebefore loading the module. This is done (in Debian) by the file:
> cat /etc/modutils/floppy
pre-install floppy /bin/mknod/dev/fd0 b 2 0

post-remove floppy /bin/rm -f/dev/fd0
But the aliases must be off, unless kernel attempts to load floppymodule every time it is started, even without floppy hardware.
