[Bug 239730] New: yast2 printer forgets printer Model for LPD queues
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=239730 Summary: yast2 printer forgets printer Model for LPD queues Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: bryce1@obviously.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com This is what happens on my openSUSE 10.2 system: 1) Add an LPD printer (e.g. 192.168.1.202, queue BINARY_P1) 2) Assign it a Model (e.g. Brother HL-1470N) 3) Observe that Model shows in YaST2 under "Model". Now exit YaST2 and restart. The printer entry will still be there, but the "Model" will show as "unknown". No amount of setting the model type results in joy. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.

Something is definitely broken here. My printouts, by the way, are all scaled about 60%. The same printer works fine from a PC with either PCL or Postscript, and from a Mac in Postscript. I've been using this printer for years, first with Redhat, then with SUSE 10.0 and 10.1. It's not the printer. It's the OS. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.

It works well for me. Note that the model name in YaST is what there is in the PPD as ModelName. Perhaps there is no such entry in your PPD? -- 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, or are watching someone who is.

It IS broken. A resolution where I copy ppd files as root is hardly a resolution. Maybe I should invite you to log in to my machine with a remote X session and see this. Yast is NOT saving the information properly. Yast must think it is saving the information, but actually fails to. Note that on this same machine yast must be run directly as root, it won't run from the GUI. Perhaps that's related? -- 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, or are watching someone who is.

There is possibility to run printer module as non-root (but you will able only to see settings, not change them), so check it to be sure. Please, to help us reproduce it, could you: 1 - delete your current configuration 2 - delete your log files (or backup them away) 3 - try to reproduce and write down step-by-step (please write also details like printer model, hwinfo --printer output, ppd filename) 4 - attach yast-log files 5 - attach /etc/cups/* content Probably this will enought to reproduce here -- 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, or are watching someone who is.
