 Posted: Sat Sep 15, 2007 3:14 am Post subject: .hplip.conf file keeps being created in / [SOLVED] |
 |
|
This isn't critical by any means, but it's driving me nuts. I have hplip-1.7.4a-r1 installed with X, cups, scanner, and ppds USE flags for my HP PSC 1410. My scanner works fine using XSane and GIMP and the printer works using CUPS. My only problem, if you want to call it that, is every couple of days or so, there is this stupid .hplip.conf file sitting right in /. It's totally empty and it doesn't get created with any kind of consistency that I can identify. Again, it's by no means critical, but really just annoying. If you have any ideas, I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

| Sweet, I'm emerging 2.7.6 as we speak. Should I mark this as solved even though the solution is a package that is masked? Thanks. |

Well, that didn't go as well as I'd have hoped. I did the upgrade and now I can't print. Scanning still works fine, but printing isn't. After doing some digging around on the web, I've believe it has something to do with hplip and udev not getting along right out of the box. Following some guidance from another thread, I tried changing this in /etc/udev/rules.d/55-hpmud.rules
| Code: |
#SYSFS{idVendor}=="03f0", GROUP="lp"
|
to
| Code: |
SYSFS{idVendor}=="03f0", SYSFS{idProduct}=="4d11", PROGRAM="/bin/sh -c 'X=%k X=$${X#usbdev} B=$${X%%%%.*} D=$${X#*.}; printf /proc/bus/usb/%%03i/%%03i $$B $$D'", RUN+="/bin/chown lp: %c; /bin/chmod 666 %c"
|
but it didn't work. The "4d11" came from doing lsusb -v on the printer device. In /var/log/messages, I see
| Code: |
Sep 16 01:12:22 dougtop PSC_1400_series?serial=CN54KB629404BN: INFO: open device failed; will retry in 30 seconds...

Anyone, anything? Thanks again. |

| Well, it looks like 2.7.6 was removed from portage, so I updated to 2.7.7-r2 and now I can print again and scanning still works. Good enough for me, I'm closing this thing. Thanks. |
