[opensuse] SuSE 11 alpha 3
Hey Group; Again I see a problem with SuSE 11 Yast2 and cups. I call up Yast2 Hardware Printer and go all the way trough the setup for my HP 4L printer and all I find is one filter driver. OK one driver would be fine but the printer will not even print or wake up. It did work in 10.3GM just fine. I am also seeing when calling up Yast2 again the Filter is not set to "Letter" like when I originally set it up. Al that shows up is "....." Anyone one have a idea on this subject. I might try the cups setup GUI version (but I don't remember it binary name). -- 73 de Donn Washburn 307 Savoy Street Email:" n5xwb@windstream.net " Sugar Land, TX 77478 LL# 1.281.242.3256 Ham Callsign N5XWB HAMs : " n5xwb@arrl.net " VoIP via Gizmo: bmw_87kbike / via Skype: n5xwbg BMW MOA #: 4146 - Ambassador " http://counter.li.org " #279316 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Have you tried: http://localhost:631/ ?

Although I realize that most experienced users are comfortable with using local cups, but the YaST cups configuration is there for a reason to help simplify installation and administration. Donn, Have you filed a bug report and label it minor? You can do so by creating (or logging in) an account at http://bugzilla.novell.com Good luck. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I don't see the difficulty of using " http://localhost:631/" to set up a printer. I find it a lot easier than Yast and works much better and more reliable. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.

Me too, because it always works without any fuss, AND: very good error logging, so you are always able to find the cause off failing ;) -- Enjoy your time around, Oddball (Now or never...)

Is it an update from an older (which?) openSUSE version or a new installation from scratch? How is the printer connected (USB, parallel port, ...)? Which exact model string is shown in YaST (what was autodetected)? Which excat driver string is shown (which driver was found for it)? What results lpinfo -l -v and lpinfo -m | grep -i 4l Kind Regards Johannes Meixner -- SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstrasse 5, 90409 Nuernberg, Germany AG Nuernberg, HRB 16746, GF: Markus Rex -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
