version mar 3 0,03.
(version jan 20 worked fine on this laptop, sony viao fxa-36}
the cdrom version mar 30,03 seems to work ok.

No usb found by the kde printer settings wizard.
Error message on starting usbview that usbdevfs not installed.
lsmod shows lines for usb hub and controllers.

I added the line to fstab
none /proc/bus/usb usbdevfs defaults 0 0

mount -a

The settings Printer Maneger now finds usb printers and allowed installation of my printer
which now works just fine.

What happened that fstab was not correctly set up on hdinstall.

Hotplug is installed and hotplug status looks ok with usb up level 2.

The notes for hotplug in /usr/share/doc indicate a problem with the testing kernel. is this mabe the problem "This particular version won't work on test versions of the 2.4 kernels,
which (NOTE!) need modutils 2.4.2 or later; for your two letter country
code (cz, jp, tw, us, etc) use this FTP site:
"
Or do I need to look for some other problem in usb hotplug and try to trouble shoot the hotplug autoconfiguration.
