Hm.  Glad you brought the subject up because I just noticed that I no 
longer
need the ntfs useflag.  I once had an MS Windows partition for those 
very rare
occasions when I was forced to run a Windows application, but now I 
can use
wine or VirtualBox to run any Windows software that my 
banker/broker/city/state/

federal government may coerce me into using.

 SNIP 

That's not the global USE flags, just the ones turned on for cups.  I 
ran emerge -vp cups and then copied the USE flags from that.  This is my 
global USE flags:


USE=3dnow X aac acpi alsa automount avahi berkdb bzip2 cairo cddb cdr

I suspect that a lot of those are no longer valid tho.  I need to clean 
house on those.  Any volunteers?  lol   I think one of the eix commands 
will show the dead ones.  I can't recall at the moment.  Oh well.

That was my first impression also, but those are only the USE flags for 
cups. Mine are a little different, but I have another cups version (Dale 
does not even seem have a usb USE flag):

USE=X acl dbus java jpeg ldap linguas_de pam perl php png python samba 
slp ssl tiff usb -debug -gnutls -kerberos -static -xinetd)  
 


 Alex:  when I plug in my HP USB printer, I see this in dmesg:
 
 usb 2-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2
 usb 2-2: New USB device found, idVendor=03f0, idProduct=1617
 usb 2-2: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3

 usblp0: USB Bidirectional printer dev 2 if 0 alt 1 proto 2 vid 0x03F0
 pid 0x1617 usbcore: registered new interface driver usblp
 
 Do you see somethinhg different?

Less verbose, but similar:
usb 1-2: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 3
usblp0: USB Bidirectional printer dev 3 if 0 alt 0 proto 2 vid 0x04A9 pid 
0x10A5
usbcore: registered new interface driver usblp

There is a message in syslog that is being repeated hundreds of times:
May 15 22:25:55 [kernel] usb 1-2: usbfs: interface 0 claimed by usblp 
while 'usb' sets config #1
- Last output repeated 58 times -

I noticed that but my cups version does not appear to even use the usb 
USE flag.  It's not enabled, but it is not disabled either.  I do have 
usb enabled globally tho.  Strange but my printer works fine.


This made me think, hplip is not running anymore.  This is weird.  
Printers on this time too.  lol

A stab in the dark:

Does udev know about the printer? - this identifies a new usb device to
the kernel as a usb printer instead of just an unknown usb device.

Do you have sane installed? - if its a multifunction device sane may
have grabbed it first (for the scanner) locking the printer out.
Requires some manual tuning of the udev rules if this is the case (this
is required by my epson multifunction)
