Why my I ask would you do that. SUSE is an rpm based distro for a reason. Get the latest rpms for your version at http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Printing/SUSE_Linux_10.1/. Also note, there were big changes in cups from 1.1.23.to 1.2.11. You will need to re setup all your printers.
Joe, Great, thank you. installed 1.2.11 now from given repo. :)
Okay, then had to go thru the "new" conf file to find ghow I can enable remote
administration via webbrowser.
changes
<Location />
added "Allow 192.168.0.*" as a new line
Okay,
Now it gets weird. I did following: - mv /etc/cups /etc/cups~ # to have a copy just in case - cd cups-13.3./sorces/ - ./configure - make - make install
Checkinstall would have made going back a lot easier. See if make uninstall works, and use the correct rpms for your system. I am using 10.2, but I find 1.2.11 to be an excellent version. BTW, your printing subsystem is quite an important system, I would not advise lightly upgrading it to the latest and greatest (i.e. bleeding edge) without a lot of research. 1.2.11 is not the latest version possible, but the latest pre built for your version in the build service. It has now been tested by many folks, and judging from the lack of emails here (and I would assume bug reports in bugzilla), it is a version ready for prime time. HTH.
