[clue] Need help, willing to pay

[Paul Madsen]

Yaverot -

Thank you for you reply.

I did not build the module for g_printer.  It came as part of the Ubunto
distribution.

I ran the /sbin/depmod -a command to rebuild the module dependencies, but
this did not fix the problem.

Running the 'insmod' command directly produces the same error message:

sudo insmod
/lib/modules/3.2.0-36-generic/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/g_printer.ko
FATAL:  Error inserting g_printer
(/lib/modules/3.1.0-36-generic/kernel/drivers/usb/gadget/g_printer.ko): No
such device

The 'lspci' command produces:
...
01:02.0 USB controller: NetChip Technology, Inc. device 2200 (rev 01)
...

Any further thoughts?

Thanks
Paul
