[gentoo-user] Cups and USB

[gentoo-user] Cups and USB

[Leandro Melo de Sales]

Hi,

  I installed cups and my printer is recognized by the kernel
(usblp.ko module), but when I try to add a new printer, cups doesn't
show usb option, why? How to solve this?

Thanks,

Leandro.

add USE  usb:
usb 	Adds USB support to applications that have optional USB support (e.g. cups)

But there is no usb USE option for cups:

# equery u cups
[ Searching for packages matching cups... ]
[ Colour Code : set unset ]
[ Legend        : Left column  (U) - USE flags from make.conf
           ]
[                  : Right column (I) - USE flags packages was installed with ]
[ Found these USE variables for net-print/cups-1.2.4 ]
 U I
 + - X     : Adds support for X11
 + - dbus  : Enable dbus support for anything that needs it (gpsd,
gnomemeeting, etc)
 + + jpeg  : Adds JPEG image support
 + + nls   : Adds Native Language Support (using gettext - GNU locale utilities)
 + + pam   : Adds support PAM (Pluggable Authentication Modules) -
DANGEROUS to arbitrarily flip
 + + php   : Include support for php
 + + png   : Adds support for libpng (PNG images)
 - - ppds  : Adds support for automatically generated ppd (printing
driver) files
 + + samba : Adds support for SAMBA (Windows File and Printer sharing)
 + + slp   : Adds Service Locator Protocol support
 + + ssl   : Adds support for Secure Socket Layer connections
 + + tiff  : Adds support for the tiff image format

... any other clue?

Leandro.
