https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=446186 Summary: Can't manually select ppd file in yast2 printer Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Beta 5 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: martin.schlander@gmail.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- I have an Okipage 6ex laserprinter, traditionally all I've needed to do to configure it is go to YaST2 printer and select a HP Laserjet 4 ppd-file. This could be easily done inside the YaST2 module. Now in 11.1 the printermodule detects the printer but tells me no suitable driver is present. After I've figured out where the ppd-files are stored (never needed to know this before), I have the option to browse to the ppd-files with a nasty Qt file dialog (now I know why KDE have their own). When I finally find the proper ppd-file in this messy filedialog and select it, it won't work, I'm returned to the main dialog of the printer module and again I'm told there's no suitable driver, and my manual ppd-file selection is ignored. It would be nice to be able to manually appoint a ppd file. And it would also be nice to be able to select it using a nice organized yast gui like in previous releases, instead of having to manually browse the filehierarchi using a messy Qt file dialog that's not particularly suitable for the job and requires the user to know where to look for the ppd files. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
