Do you have your lp modules loaded? I have an epson Stylus C84, and the

Hi John,
I also suspected it was a module problem and indeed I have no lp module
*at all*. some time ago I had a similar problem with other usb devices
and I installed hotplug to solve that. actually, my understanding is
that this does not apply to the newer kernels in 2.6.x...
kruiskruid:~# uname -sr
Linux 2.6.11-powerpc
kruiskruid:~# lsmod | grep lp
kruiskruid:~# modprobe lp
FATAL: Module lp not found.
the following search shows results only in the 2.4.x branch.
http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/search_contents.pl?word=lp.o&searchmode=searchfiles&case=insensitive&version=stable&arch=powerpc
so, maybe I could boot the old kernel and see if it works there...
will definitely try that, any further hints in the meanwhile?
thanks!
Mario
