Dear All
I would like to know how to learn whether the USB connection is working properly. I have a printer connected to there and it does not work. Could somebody here please help me?
Thank you a lot in advance!
Paul
Open a terminal, become root/su (type "su" then <enter>, enter root password and <enter>) and type "tail -f /var/log/messages".
Then unplug the printer...wath the output there, and plug it in again...and watch the output again. You should be getting messages there followed by -success:)
If in doubt do "service usb restart" and try again.
Good luck,
