 |
|
I have no problem with my usb printer or usb media storage compact flash if I have the printer on during boot or card in the slot.
If I am booted and then turn on printer it is not detected. I followed the Gentoo udev Guide with coldplug and hotplug.
| Code: | rc-update show
alsasound | boot
bootmisc | boot
checkfs | boot
checkroot | boot
clock | boot
coldplug | boot
consolefont | boot
cupsd | default
hostname | boot
hplip | default
keymaps | boot
local | default nonetwork
localmount | boot
modules | boot
net.eth0 | default
net.lo | boot
netmount | default
rmnologin | boot
sshd | default
syslog-ng | default
urandom | boot
vixie-cron | default
xdm | default
|
What else could I be missing? |

You should have enabled. Check in the .config file in /usr/src/linux.
| Code: | | grep HOTPLUG .config |
CONFIG_HOTPLUG should be set to y
