by I own a HP2230 parallel printer connected to a usb port to a PC through
a
parallel to usb adapter that uses a PL2305 (Prolific Technology).
I've a debian woody with 2.4.18 688 smp kernel an cupsys installes.
Sometimes, I get this errors:
"Printer not connected, will retry in 30 seconds"
and "Usb port busy, will retry in 30 seconds".
When I get this I've no other option than stop cupsys and hotplug and
start
them again, first hotplug and then cupsys.
If I restart hotplug instead of stop&start them, I can get a complete
crash
and hang of the system. So usually, I only stop it at a time.
Well. So many times, stopping hotplug I get this error:
Stopping hotplug subsystem: usb/etc/hotplug/usb.rc: line 7:
19117
Segmentation fault rmmod usb-ohci usb-uhci uhci >/dev/null
2>&1
After this, if I type lsmod, I get this.
usb-uhci 0 0 (deleted)
usbcore 50272 0 [usb-uhci]
So I've no other option than restart the system (when I can).
I'think that the problem could be in the PL2305 adapter, but I'm not
sure...
Any idea?
Thanks
