Hi!
Since Linux2.2 I have to reboot my computer just to print. I am printing quite seldom, therefore I switch my printer only on just before printing and switch it off, when I am ready. This worked pretty well with the 2.0.x-Kernels. Since Kernel 2.2 the kernel seems to detect the hardware on lp* while booting, and if I switch on the printer later, the kernel ignores it and I can not print without a reboot. Is this really intended? Why? I have everything in my kernel compiled in, not via modules.
cu Jens-Uwe
