RE: [Hpoj-devel] newbie question

Tim,

I compiled the program but the docs are a bit spartan and I'm at a
loss for what value to pass for "deviceid" (required first parameter).

I tried the command below with the following results:

root@beowulf:/root/deviceid # deviceid /dev/lp0
deviceid: cannot set transfer mode

help! - e

You can use
<URL:ftp://people.redhat.com/twaugh/parport/deviceid-0.3.tar.gz> to
find out what the device ID really is.

Not that it probably helps you..
