I don't know why it would cause the printer to stop working. I didn't
just notice that the IRQs were the same - I checked for it
specifically.  What I noticed was that the printer wasn't working, and
lpq showed it as possibly offline. When I first installed the USB
printer, I had the exact same problem - until I changed changed the
hardware config so that the fxp and uhci weren't using the same
IRQ. That's why I checked for this case.

I'm still trying to figure that one out. I haven't been able to get a
config with the fxp and uhci on different IRQs. I've got a doctor's
appointment, after which I'm going to pull the fxp and see how that
goes.

        Thanx,
