Added much better HP all-in-one device support.
Those devices are now autodetected at the USB and if there
is already a CUPS queue (the latter in particular for network
HP all-in-one devices which do not work without a CUPS queue)
and additionally hp-setup can be launched.
When hp-setup is launched from the YaST scanner config,
the scanner config waits until hp-setup is finished,
then it restarts the scanner autodetection to show
the current state (after hp-setup was run).
Therefore to set up a HP all-in-one network device
on a new installed openSUSE 11.0 system,
you can start with the YaST scanner config which
would not autodetect it because there is no CUPS queue
but you can run hp-setup from the YaST scanner config
to set up the CUPS queue with hp-setup and finish it
which triggers the YaST scanner autodetection again
which would now find the HP all-in-one network device
so that you can proceed with the YaST scanner config.
FYI:
Of course "hp-probe -bnet -escan" would autodetect
HP all-in-one network devices with a scanner unit but
- it scans the network which cannot be done without
asking for user confirmation (i.e. it cannot be done
automatically e.g. during startup of the scanner config),
- the scanner setup of HP all-in-on network devices
is useless unless there is a CUPS queue
so that "hp-setup" + "hp-probe -bcups -escan" is better
for HP all-in-one network devices.
For HP all-in-one USB devices "hp-probe -busb -escan" is used.
