This happens in M8.2 , and was the norm from first boot on M9.0 beta2 I never got any futher than that as far as the later betas are concerned. Basically USB detection of my usb printer is erratic. I suppose I should mention that the 8 usb ports on my msi mobo are both usb1 and usb2 , at least 4 of them can be usb2, I don't believe mandrake configures any of them usb2 though. Just trying to make sense of a situation where some people have big problems and others say everything's fine. Two things spring to mind, that may give us some pointers. First - the issue of ohci and uhci - it would be interesting to know, of the people who are having problems, which protocol they are using. Second - I know that under windows some devices work find on the usb ports carried from the motherboard to the backplate, but don't work reliably on a hub hung from one of those ports. I wondered if anything similar is showing up. No answers, but a few questions. Anne Well, yes, and as you can see mine are all ohci (incidentally what is the difference between ohci and uhci anyway ?) and as far as I am aware uhci never appears anywhere in my mandrake OS, but maybe others find this different. No wait a minute I've just checked up on kde-info-USB devices, and again my usb Z53 printer has vanished BUT , to prove me wrong the setup has changed, USB OHCI Root Hub (1) USB OHCI Root Hub (2) and, USB UHCI Root Hub (3) USB UHCI Root Hub (4) USB UHCI Root Hub (5) So there is a clue, there's a battle going on for recognition between ohci and uhci and something triggers a change , now lets see what modprobe usb-ohci does, [root@localhost root]# modprobe usb-ohci -v [root@localhost root]# so that does nothing this time, so lets try modprobe usb-uhci, [root@localhost root]# modprobe usb-uhci -v [root@localhost root]# so that did nothing again, I guess this means a reboot , John -- John Richard Smith [EMAIL PROTECTED] Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

I decided that the only way for me to get printing now was to hook up my printer as a parallel and that worked. My Hp 940c as parallel does work fine. My scanner only works with LM if it is hooked up as usb and so it will not work now. I decided to reinstall with the usb mouse instead of the ps/2 mouse and Mandrake 9 could not detect it so there is definitely a usb problem with 9 and my system. 8.2 did excellently with usb. I may go back to 8.2 or try another distro. Yes, for a small moment during an emotional relapse I considered Windows XP of all things but quickly came back to my senses. By the way, during reinstall of LM9 I accidently lost my choice of win95 which I had already installed. I forgot how to get it back without erasing LM.

Re: [newbie] Printer stopped working [solved!] {NOT!}
Wrongo! I thought I had it solved as I got a test page. That was all I got. Everything else gets stuck in queue with usb port busy error. Any ideas at all? I'm just about to dust off my 8.2 disks. It's a shame too, as there's a lot to like in 9.0. Linus On Sunday 06 October 2002 11:37 am, Linus Drouhard wrote: I got it working again.

Re: [newbie] Printer stopped working [solved!]Mine not solved!
Marcia, Run PrinterDrake through the console. You will get extra messages there that you don't get through the Mandrake Control Center. I'll bet that your getting the following messages. rmmod: module parport_probe is not loaded modprobe: Can't locate module parport_probe modprobe: Can't locate module parport_probe rmmod: module parport_probe is not loaded If so, I think that we have a generic problem with Mandrake 9.0.
