I don't need to stop it completly, but it appears to think there is additional hardware not installed, probably the 2nd parport or the printer, but both are working. Isn't that what your suggestion do, or am I not understanding it properly? I just need to have it stop snaggging. Harry G On Mon November 4 2002 10:19 pm, Jeric wrote:

After getting my 2nd parport card to work, and installing the 2nd printer, I keep getting long hardware scans on bootup, and the 2nd printer gets checked out, and I half to clear the printers buffer before using.
How do I fix this under Suse 8.0?
in 8.1 it is under yast2>system>runlevel editor. just uncheck hardware scan from the init's that apply (i think it is listed as 'hwscan' or something)
or remove the S and K values of hardware scan from the /etc/init.d/rc[#].d
