I haven't had time to bisect this, but I'm having a problem on a AMD64
gentoo system where the printer doesn't work with recent kernels.

2.6.18-rc3 worked
2.6.21.1 doesn't
2.6.22-rc4 doesn't

unfortunantly the system is gooted on 2.6.18 at the moment and I'm out of
town so my ability to test is limited I can provide the 2.6.22-rc4
(attached) and 2.6.18-rc3 configs.

dmesg appears to show the port being detected, but writes to the port
under newer kernels appear to complete, but no data gets to the printer.

any suggestions other then doing the large bisect?

That would be good, thanks.  Please be sure to cc linux-usb-devel on
the results.

OK, I'm curious about how someone deduced that this is a problem
with a USB printer vs. parallel port printer since the config file has:

CONFIG_PRINTER=y
CONFIG_USB_PRINTER=y

The kernel boot log should probably be posted also.

it's a parallel port printer, not a usb printer. when I get home from usenix I'll reboot into a new kernel and post the boot logs for both configs.
