USB
Hi Everyone!
I am trying to connect an Epson Stylus Photo 1290 printer to
stable potato with kenel 2.2.18pre21. I have compiled the kernel
with usb and usb-printer support. The only documentation on usb
I could find came with the kernel sources. There is some talk of
/dev/usb and /dev/ttyUSB, but neither exist on my system. MAKEDEV
makes no mention of usb.
How do I create the appropriate devices?
Please respond to my personal address, after receiving 193 messages
I have immediately unsubscribed from this mailing list again.
Thanks in advance, Robert
P.S. Here is an extract of what the kernel says at boot time:
