:? I trying to set up a hp 3650 printer on a IBM t-23. The printer uses a usb connection.
I checked hwd -s first for the modules to put in rc.conf. hwd reported that there were no
usb ports present. There are 2! I'm sure theyr'e usb 1 & I know the modules needed. Should I put the modules in rc.conf, change dev in fstab, & possibly create a mess? Could use input from the community. -- Thanks -- Larry

These lines are in dmesg: usbcore: registered new driver usbfs
usbcore: registered new driver hub

and: usbcore: registered new driver hiddev
usbcore: registered new driver usbhid
drivers/usb/input/hid-core.c: v2.0:USB HID core driver

try with hotplug (etc/rc.d/hotplug start). It will autoload necessary modules. Then lsmod and there you will have all modules hytat it loaded.

Thanks Pajaro, with lsmod I got:

Module Size Used by
ohci_hcd 22660 0
ehci_hcd 31748 0
uhci_hcd 33680 0

I assume these 3 are the modules for usb? Thanks again -- Larry

yup, ehci is for usb 2.0 and ohci/uhci are for usb 1.0 (there's 2 different architectures, hence 2 modules)
