I am very glad to have the printer configuration module as I do not want to configure CUPS manually.
Yes you have a point there. OSX also uses CUPS, but the printer configuration is a small settings on the desktop and not a system wide configuration that you need first that it exists. I still wonder, if there is a printer database, why it is not possible to just plug the printer, have some rule match the id, pick the right ppd, adjust/restart cups, everything automatically (basically what Windows does if you throw the vendor CDs to the trash first). -- Duncan Mac-Vicar P. - Novell® Making IT Work As One™ SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nuernberg) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: yast-devel+help@opensuse.org
