Genesys gl811e (InLine 3.5" IDE enclosure)

Hello,

I recently bought a hard disk enclosure that uses the Genesys gl811e 
usb-ide bridge and had nothing but difficulties with it. I'm using a 
2.6.19 kernel from gentoo linux. This means the patch for MAX_SECTORS_64 
has already been applied but it still is not working.

Are there any other suggestions about what I could do to get it up and 
running? or is this HD enclosure a sure piece to ask for a refund for? 
I've already tried setting MAX_SECTORS lower for the unusual_dev entry, 
and patching all other files where necessary, but that did not help either.

The output from dmesg is below. I would appreciate any suggestions that 
you have to offer.


Regards,


Chris
