Hi,
I checked the log output and it shows
     I [04/Aug/2008:11:26:59 +0400] Started "/usr/lib/cups/cgi-bin/admin.cgi" (pid=27920)
I [04/Aug/2008:11:27:02 +0400] Started "/usr/lib/cups/cgi-bin/admin.cgi" (pid=27921)
I [04/Aug/2008:11:27:02 +0400] Started "/usr/lib/cups/daemon/cups-deviced" (pid=27922)
E [04/Aug/2008:11:27:02 +0400] [cups-deviced] PID 27933 (card_usb) crashed on signal 11!
What it means????

Also in the usb.c file if i have the command line arguments is 1,it just list the uri and return CUPS_BACKEND_OK.I am always getting arguments as 1 not 6 or 7.What could be the reason.?How will we get the 6 or 7 command line arguments??

Also what i understood is that after writing my custom backend it should display in the cups web page while adding the printer.Is that correct right?
