--- Comment #27 from Oliver Neukum
I guess that Oliver is talking about upstream kernel or udev in the end?
Both. A kernel change triggers the bug. If you are very unlucky you'll see this bug on a kernel older than 3.1. Unfortunately there's no good way to handle this in the kernel (we'll lose the card reader). That means that the best kernel fix has to go into the kernel(upstream and stable) and udev rules to disable the trigger have to go into upstream udev.
Anyway I can report to HPLIP project but it's the wrong channel (while probably the only one available to me) as it's not a hplip software issue at all. I would expect that it's easier for SUSE to talk to HP either directly through alliances or via other kernel developers (I just assume here that HP has kernel developers as they provide drivers on their own AFAIK).
We could merely tell HP to fix the firmware and still would have to deal with all buggy devices out there. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
