That makes sense. However, why is it that you can only detect a
printer
(maybe the case with other hw?) when booting up? Limitations in how you
can talk to the printer hardware? If I run 'kudzu -s' from a VT once
Fedora is loaded up, it returns with nothing.
Two scenarios:
- the parallel port could be held open by another program
- or -
- it's already in the config, so it doesn't count as new
