Re: Re: CUPS to USB printing no longer working
Greetings -- In trying to print from a USB HP-A310 Photosmart printer with hplip 1.6.10 recently installed. I got these messages: # modprobe -l | grep printer /lib/modules/2.4.21/kernel/drivers/usb/printer.o # tail -f /var/log/messages Nov 23 23:55:06 Computer04 kernel: hub.c: new USB device 00:1f.2-2, assigned address 9 Nov 23 23:55:06 Computer04 kernel: printer.c: usblp0: USB Bidirectional printer dev 9 if 0 alt 0 proto 2 vid 0x03F0 pid 0x1D02 Nov 23 23:55:09 Computer04 usb.agent[7118]: missing kernel or user mode driver printer Nov 23 23:55:09 Computer04 usb.agent[7121]: missing kernel or user mode driver printer Nov 23 23:56:32 Computer04 kernel: usb.c: USB disconnect on device 00:1f.2-2 address 9 Nov 23 23:56:32 Computer04 kernel: printer.c: usblp0: removed Nov 23 23:56:40 Computer04 kernel: hub.c: new USB device 00:1f.2-2, assigned address 10 Nov 23 23:56:40 Computer04 kernel: printer.c: usblp0: USB Bidirectional printer dev 10 if 0 alt 0 proto 2 vid 0x03F0 pid 0x1D02 Nov 23 23:56:43 Computer04 usb.agent[7197]: missing kernel or user mode driver printer Nov 23 23:56:44 Computer04 usb.agent[7199]: ... no modules for USB product 3f0/1d02/200 Nov 24 00:20:51 Computer04 hpiod: removing usblp driver interface=0 for hp:/usb/Photosmart_A310_series?serial=CN6943504Q04NZ io/hpiod/device.cpp 504 Nov 24 00:20:51 Computer04 Photosmart_A310_series?serial=CN6943504Q04NZ: INFO: open device failed; will retry in 30 seconds...

video for compaq prolinea 4/50
I need guidance in selecting a monitor (and video card?) for a compaq prolinea 4/50. I'm just beginning and would like to at least run fvwm or windowmaker. Any suggestions? Thanks.
installing packages -- alternatives to dselect?
IIci system 7.5.3 20/1G 600M Linux partition 60M swap 68030 33.6 dial-up stand-alone w/ slink 2.1 installed 3/9/99. I have just the basic system installed. Dselect shows I have selected 105 packages to get. dselect Install shows I have to get 526k of 29M left to get. 'looks like wmakerconf-data (stable main) is 100% received but dselect won't go on to get whatever is left. If you mark more than one site to retrieve stable main contrib non-free files from, will dselect go back and forth between them to get the packages or will it recognize one as being redundant and just ignore it? Logically it seems like the more effective way to apt-get files in dselect would be to mark a number of different sites, even if you're trying to get the same files from all of them. But I ended up getting here using just http://http.debian.org/debian stable main contrib non-free. I'm going to try to figure out what is left and try to bypass dselect. The mail archives seem to be saying to do this via dpkg directly somehow. Any suggestions? My expectation: once dselect Install runs its course entirely and I [C]onfigure, [S]elect will show that all my selected packages are installed. Currently [S]elect just shows them marked for install, even though almost all of them have apparently been retrieved from the site. When they are all marked as installed then will I be able to read man pages and run window maker, for example? Or will I then have to manually unpack installed packages or do something else to get them ready to work? Pat Greenwood Omaha [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Occasionally the Packages file has an error and the available version of a package may be different. In that case, it might be better to unselect that file and run install to let the other packages complete the installation process, then go back and figure out what the problem is.

Sometimes you have to run install more than once, although this is rare with the apt method in dselect. After the packages are installed, they are ready for use.

This worked and I then finished off running dselect again. Everything except gcc_2.7.2.3-7.deb unpacked and set up, so I'll be fumbling around for awhile now until I break down and buy a book.
access for non-us packages
IIci 20/1G 68030 33.6 dial-up stand-alone w/ slink 2.1 installed 3/9/99. I am a newbie. I apologize if the answer is already out there, but I couldn't find it (about one week trying). I have just the basics installed, no man pages yet. Due to the amount of time it was taking to obtain selected packages in dselect, I edited against the Access defaults to try specific mirror sites. I'm back to what I think were the suggested paths. I've tried: http://http.us.debian.org/debian stable main contrib non-free http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US stable non-US and http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US non-US main contrib non-free which I determined from reading the source for apt. During Upgrade it seems like the http.us.debian.org...path is working, but the non-us.debian.org... is not. It appears all efforts to access non-us.debian.org... sites return a 404 Not Found. At the end of Upgrade I get the error E: Packages file /var/state/apt/lists/non-us.debian.org_debian-non-US_dists_stable_non-US_binary-m68k_Packages has changed and the script tells me to correct this. How should the Access paths be configured? Is it unrealistic to expect success attempting to install from the net or should I surrender to CD's? Is there a faster way to obtain some bells and whistles via the net? My current plan is to Install the minimum necessary to get X Window running with wmaker and a couple of games, then add packages later. Pat Greenwood Omaha [EMAIL PROTECTED]
