Public bug reported: On Feisty at latest maintenance (herd4+), when I power on my usb printer (Epson CX4200), nothing happens (no messages written to /var/log/messages). When I power on a usb disk, the system recognizes the printer and the usbdisk, and now printing is possible.
System details 32-bit system kernel is 2.6.20-8-generic Let me know what else is needed. To recreate: 1. Boot system with printer and usb disk powered off 2. Power on printer (nothing happens). 3. Power on usb disk (both printer and usb disk recognized) ** Affects: Ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- usb printer not detected until usb disk poweron https://launchpad.net/bugs/86132 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
