A Linux driver for the parallel port version of the SyQuest EZ135
removable media drive is now available for beta testing. The driver
supports 4-bit and 8-bit ports with or without interrupts. It does not
support EPP or ECP ports.

You should check out http://www.torque.net/ez135.html for information
and to download the source file ez.c.

Alternatively, you can get it by ftp from gear.torque.net in /pub/ez.c.

The comments in the file explain how to compile the module and create the
required entries in /dev. It should work in most recent kernels - I've
tested it on 1.3.57 and several later kernels including pre2.0.6.

Please keep me posted on your successes and failures with this driver.
