Hello,
I want to compile HPOJ for a mipsel router so I can use this router to share
my HP Officejet G55 on my personal network. I have successfully cross
compiled hpoj after some major problems at first (configure script seems to
contain some major bugs, but I'll post on that at a later time). Now I
executed ptal-init setup on this router and it didn't probe for USB devices
because it wasn't compiled with USB-support. But I DID compile it with usb
support. I first cross compiled libusb and then pointed the configure script
to the right directory. I also used some other options like no SNMP support,
no parallel port support, no sane support (I will compile with this at a
later time) and no cups support.
Also, is libusb required to be on the router to run the driver? Or is it
only required for compiling?
Should I compile with cups support (thus
-with-cups-backend=/dir/to/cups/backend) to get usb support? Or is it a bug
that ptal-init setup claims that there is no USB support even though there
should be?
And if I should compile with cups support, do I have to copy cups to the
router or is cups only needed to compile and not to run the driver?
Thanks a lot in advance,
Pieter Agten
