imm module issues

Hi,

I've compiled the 2.6.20.2 kernel today (I took the SuSE HEAD kernel instead
of the vanilla one) and I'm having issues with the "imm" module. I still use
a ZIP drive here for small backups and the "imm" module worked flawless on
kernel 2.6.18.8 but with kernel 2.6.20.2 I get error messages that the device
is offline even if the device is switched on and has a ZIP disk inside of it.

This is what I get from "dmesg" (Sorry for posting this here if it's the wrong
place, but I wasn't sure if I should report this to Novell's bugzilla because
I'm using the SuSE head kernel which is not officially supported)

imm: Version 2.05 (for Linux 2.4.0)
