CONFIG_HOTPLUG [resolved]

Hello there,

I compiled 2.6.9-gentoo-r9 and it gives me:

Maybe...?

Hello there,

thank you for your reply, but I already emerged hotplug after bootstrapping and added it to the boot runlevel.

And yes, I changed my /etc/grub/grub.conf after compiling a new kernel. I've tried 2.6.9-gentoo-r9 and development sources ...

Still the same error and still no printing possible :-(

...

Is there something wrong with 2.6 sources?

Cheers,
R

No cups works fine for me and I'm using gentoo-dev-sources-2.6.9-r6

Oh also if /etc/grub/grub.conf wasn't a typo you need to edit /boot/grub/grub.conf

- /usr/src/linux/.config:

Yeah, yeah, I'm in a hurry. /boot/grub/ ... I know, I know. This is not the first time I've recompiled a kernel and I know how to load it afterwards.

In stead of reminding me of typos I would appreciate a sensible answer to solve this printing problem.

:lol:

Yeah sorry I was helping my idiot friend solve a basic Windows problem so I was assuming the worst. Post the portion of your kernel config dealing with USB.

I'm assuming it doesn't say:

This command:

# /etc/init.d/hotplug (re)start

results in this output:

* CONFIG_HOTPLUG not enabled for this kernel!

Does a USB 2.0 printer connected to a USB 1.1 port need EHCI?

Cheers,

I'm bumping this thread up but I can't help you because I have to leave. Best of luck to you.

Hi there,

couldn´t you have said this earlier? This isn´t really a nice way of dealing with people, you know. Then again, what else could one expect from someone who calls his own friend a Windows idiot?

Cheers,

R

Have you tried enabling it in your kernel.

Just instinct but try adding hotplugs as a module.

I already said that:

* CONFIG_HOTPLUG=y in .config

You say it is resolved, but how did you do it? CONFIG_HOTPLUG can't be set to module.

I don't know which one to setup. try:
CONFIG_SYSCTL=y or/and
CONFIG_KOBJECT_UEVENT=y
and it will work...
