in reference to my immedeate preceding post regards the mar30 release.
pardon a newbie. hotplug seems to be working.
I looked in /proc/bus/usb/devices and /proc/bus/usb/drivers
and my usb had been installed.


I am not sure why I got the error message on trying to install my printer with Kprinting manager,
usbdevfs not installed.

Nor do I understand why adding
none /proc/bus/usb/ usbdevfs defaults 0 0
to fstab cured the problem.

bud it did and my printer installed and workes fine.

The hard drive install otherwise was simple and I like the new browser and updates.
I can post the fstab, and cat proc/bus/usb output if anyone wants.
