Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Configure the system to make all printing to remote cups server 2. Switch off computer running this cups server (or disconnect it from network or change ip address or stop cups server running on it) 3. Open yast printer configuration dialog Actual Results: I can see the busy cursor for 1 or 2 minutes, then receive dialog "cups server not accessible" with ok button - click ok and get access to the config dialog, but once I click somewhere on it I again receive busy cursor for 1/2 mins and can do nothing with this. Expected Results: I must be able to interact with the config dialog while it is trying to connect to remote cups server, see the connection progress info and be able to cancel it before it finish. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
