[HLUG] A couple of ink cartridges and a data transfer problem

[Dr Chris Owens]

Hi everybody

     Have just come across a couple of unopened Canon Inkjet cartridges 
1xBCI-3eBK and 1xBCI-3eC which I will send with pleasure to anyone who 
can use them.

     Second is more interesting but I would really appreciate some help. 
Am trying to reclaim residual data from old hard drives using a IOMAH 
USB 2.0 to SATA/IDE Adapter with Ubuntu 10.04. No problem with 
relatively recent drives but am stuck with a Fujitsu M2611T 45MB 3.5" 
IDE drive circa 1992 probably previously running Widows 3.1 (presumably 
FAT16). Was OK in its box and starts up smoothly in the adapter but I 
just can't get Ubuntu (or Windows 7) to recognise it.

     It doesn't show up with $lsubs (or anything else as far as I can 
see) and it feels like some kind of failure of data exchange between the 
old drive and the new USB requirements. Short of putting the drive back 
in its box and copying off data with floppies are there any other 
possibilities Trinity Kit maybe or are some drivers needed? - most 
reports seem to suggest drivers would not be needed.

Many thanks
