Hi All,
I have a problem concerning a combination of hotplug, usb, and my printer. Computer is running sarge on a 2.6 kernel. Printer is an HP Deskjet 895C.
What happens is that if I leave my printer usb cable attached during boot the system hangs at the stage where hotplug verifies the printer. I get the error "USB 1-2: control time out on e0pin" and boot will not advance beyond that point. I have to hit the reset button to get out of this. I have let it just sit for several minutes and nothing ever happens unless/until I hit reset. If I unplug the printer usb cable the computer boots normally. And when I plug the printer in after boot up and restart hotplug it will successfully load the printer drivers and the printer will work. It does have a couple of oddities in its operation though. It will print 4 or 5 lines, pause a couple of seconds, printer a few more lines, pause, and so on. But, that only happens when printing documents from applications. It doesn't do that when printing a test page from the CUPS interface. It also won't print from a web browser. However, the main irritation is not being able to boot successfully with the usb cable plugged in.
If I unistall hotplug the computer boots fine, it just won't recognize my printer or sound card. I tried usbmgr and when using it the boot process will hang at the same place if the printer usb cable is plugged in too, but if I unplug the cable it will recognize the printer is not there anymore and continue on to boot successfully.
Anyone have any ideas on this? Seen this before?
