Same problem in RC1. x86_64 DVD installation with KDE4, YaST Qt.
When I start the printer module it searches for printers, it finds my okipage,
but it says no suitable driver found. Clicking "Show suitable drivers" doesn't
help.
I then think: "Ok, not the end of the world, it's an ancient parallel printer
from the last millenium, needing a PPD from a completely different manufacturer
to work properly (HP LaserJet 4, HP != Oki), I'll just assign the proper
ppd-file manually"
So I click "Add driver" -> "Browse" -> After some fiddling around I manage to
navigate the annoying Qt3 filedialog to
/usr/share/cups/model/manufacturer-PPDs/hp/HP_LaserJet_4_Plus.ppd.gz -> Click
"Open" -> Ok
I'm then returned to the maindialog and I'm told again that no suitable driver
has been found.
The automation obviously doesn't work for this printer - and for the life of me
I can't figure out how to make the automation stfu and let me assign the PPD
file that I need manually.
I'll attach a screenshot of the yast module telling me there's no a driver. And
I'll attach my yast logs again.
