How can I find the port which my HP 50g is connected to?



Hi,

I am currently trying to connect my HP 50g with my Debian Lenny
(k. 2.6.26-2-686-bigmem), through HP Talx 1.3.1.

When reading the readme for 49g+ models, I realized that a module had
to be loaded. For kernels like 2.6.26 (i.e. those later than 2.6.14),
the module to launch is `hp4x'. I issued the related commands to
load it, I appended it to /etc/modules, and, to see which port my HP
is connected to, I also issued

==
# dmesg | grep new

address 20

The problem is that I need to choose a port at HP Talx's GUI, and
ehci_hcd is completely unuseful here. What can I do?

Note that the HP is connected to an 8-port USB adapter, which is then
connected to the front-adapter of my PC.

Thanks.
