When the system boots I see hpoj got loaded. When I run "ptal-init setup" as root my HP USB printer is not seen. This is a dual boot system and Windows prints ok so cables and printer are working. Why doesn't ptal-init see the connected device? Someone was mentioning about the kernel and usblp module. This is interesting but I am not interested in compileing the kernel yet, give me a few months. Thank Very Much Dave R.
