This is the first time I've seen this error. Last time I used the printer was with 2.6.24-rc3 and that time this error did not occur. The error occurs when I start a print job, not when I turn the printer on. System is Pentium D x86_64 kernel running Debian unstable. Printer is a HP Photosmart P1100 connected via parallel port. Not sure who should be CCed on this. ppdev0: registered pardevice sysctl table check failed: /dev/parport/parport0/devices/ppdev0/timeslice Sysctl already exists Pid: 14491, comm: hpijs Not tainted 2.6.24-rc5 #1 Call Trace: [] set_fail+0x3f/0x47 [] sysctl_check_table+0x4ae/0x4fb [] sysctl_check_lookup+0xc1/0xd0 [] sysctl_check_table+0x4c4/0x4fb [] sysctl_check_lookup+0xc1/0xd0 [] sysctl_check_table+0x4c4/0x4fb [] sysctl_check_lookup+0xc1/0xd0 [] sysctl_check_table+0x4c4/0x4fb [] sysctl_check_lookup+0xc1/0xd0 [] sysctl_check_table+0x4c4/0x4fb [] sysctl_check_lookup+0xc1/0xd0 [] sysctl_check_table+0x4c4/0x4fb [] register_sysctl_table+0x52/0x9d [] :parport:parport_device_proc_register+0xc3/0xe3 [] :parport:parport_register_device+0x206/0x267 [] :ppdev:pp_irq+0x0/0x40 [] :ppdev:pp_ioctl+0x13f/0x77c [] do_ioctl+0x55/0x6b [] vfs_ioctl+0x243/0x25c [] sys_ioctl+0x51/0x71 [] system_call+0x7e/0x83 Cheers, FJP
