I did not see any responses to your original post in this questions
list where you were given an one line fix to the source for your
problem. Please post that info for the list readers  who will be
searching the questions archives for the same solution.

I have seen the irq sharing question posted many times by many
different people. Your solution needs to be part of archive to help
these people who follow you, and I would like to know also.

Thanks. Someone else wrote me with a solution for the root cause of it
though; apparantly the kernel assumes that a serial port (or serial-port
emulating device like a PCI modem) cannot share IRQs. A one-line
modification of the source fixes this, and now my USB bus and the device on
it is detected according to the boot messages.

I'm still having problems getting my printer to work though; instead of
saying that the device doesn't exist it says /dev/ulpt0 and /dev/unlpt0 are
"busy" in aspfilter's setup and also if I redirect text directly to the
device on the command line.
