Just for grins, I tried connecting my usb HP Photosmart C5580
all-in-one scanner/print to my Windows XP KVM yesterday,
and while the HP software was sorta able to recognize the
device and get installed, every time I tried to actually
do anything like scan or print, Windows XP would give
a BSOD and then reboot beforfe I got a chance to see
what the BSOD actually said. Is there a way to capture BSOD
screens? (This was on a fully updated fedora 11).

Is a complicated usb device like this even expected to
work these days?
