Hi Jen, In my /etc/modules I have the following comment and module: # Allow USB printer to be powered up after boot. usblp I'm afraid I don't know how or where I found that out. I think it's been there since pre-lenny. Also I don't know whether the order of modules in /etc/modules is significant; you might want to experiment with that. -- Cheers, Clive -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
