Message-Id: List-Id: References: In-Reply-To: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: linux-hotplug@vger.kernel.org Right now there's no printer hotplugging support ... nothing calls out to userland "/dev/usb/lp0 was just born, have a cigar!". In fact I'm unclear how much the different sorts of printer (USB, parallel, network, ...) all get autoconfigured. Is there anyone working on putting together all those answers? - Dave ----- Original Message ----- From: "Oliver Neukum" To: "David Woodhouse" Cc: "Vojtech Pavlik" ; "Adam J.
