    I updated to Fedora Core 3 and it installed udev. cups works fine: I
    can still print just fine. But escputil needs to get at the raw device
    and /dev/usb/lp0 no longer exists. In fact, /dev/usb no longer exists.
    A couple of questions:

    1) What is the raw device for the first line printer under udev?

    2) How do I find out from cups or udev what the raw devices are?
    Obviously I would like to know what and how cups is able to figure out
    things are working.

    Many thanks,

    Jeff Silverman
