Bingo. |

| 41 |
udev problem. |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
hplip really really wants the lp devices at /dev/usb/lp*, but for some |
| 44 |
reaosn my idev doesn't have them like that... Hmm... Might have been |
| 45 |
me playing around ages ago. |
| 46 |
|
| 47 |
doing a quick |
| 48 |
|
| 49 |
mkdir /dev/usb |
| 50 |
|
| 51 |
followed by |
| 52 |
|
| 53 |
mknod /dev/usb/lp0 c 180 0 |
| 54 |
|
| 55 |
and it all works!!! Yay!!! |
| 56 |
|
| 57 |
Maybe that could make it into the FAQ's? I've seen lots of posts from |
| 58 |
people who can;t get itto work, but none from people who have said how |
| 59 |
they fixed it... |
