[Pkg-hpijs-devel] Bug#551790: When printer connected; whole system freezes

[Adnan Hodzic]

Package: hplip
Version: 3.9.8-1
Justification: breaks the whole system
Severity: critical

Today I installed hplip hplip-data hplip-gui hp-ppd and my HP Deskjet
F4280 was automaticaly reconized and configured. 

Problem: As soon as I connect USB cable to te USB port whole system
freezes, not just X but whole system and the only way
to "resolve" this problem is by hard restarting it. 

Workaround would be to connect the USB cable while notebook is off and
then power it on, system won't freeze and printing
will work just fine.
