Using Woody 3.0r0 here... First Problem USB Printing using CUPS
I have a HOWTO which tells me how to set up CUPS with a parallel port printer but I have a USB printer. In the CUPS web setup I can add a printer but when I try to print the test page I get the following error: Unable to open USB port device file "/dev/usb/lp0": No such device How do I tell which port device to use? Also can anyone point me to a HOWTO for setting up CUPS and a USB device The error message pops up whenever I change the USB Printer #<Whatever> /var/log/dmesg seems to indicate that the USB ports and the things that are connected to it are detected at boot. I have a Microsoft Steering wheel as well as my printer. I am using a stock bf24 kernel from the install disc. 2nd Problem fonts... Installed KDE 3.1.4 from their Debian repository at download.kde.org. When I used the Font Installer to install new Truetype fonts from WinXP into /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/ttf. The program ran all the necessary programs to generate the caches. When I come to set up desktop fonts the fonts work fine as the root user but when I use a standard user the fonts all look like squares. I'm not sure wether it is the fonts themselves which are not compatible for some reason or something else...
