CC: Till Kamppeter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> CC: Sylpheed <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Interesting problem. Tonight I downloaded from the Cups site; cups-1.1.6-source.tar.gz and proceeded to to compile and install it on my Mandrake 7.1 system. Cups compiled without difficulty other than warnings from the compiler relating to un-initialised variables and similar. I then attempted to configure it via my browser using both http:// and https://localhost:631. This failed with a message indicating that a document could not be found. Somewhat confused I decided to see if I could get some help. I brought up my email app of choice (Sylpheed 0.4.62), which until now has been functioning without fault. I hit the compose button of the emailer to write the message and Sylpheed appeared to hang. After about 30 seconds I ran Ktop to see what was going on and found that the Sylpheed process was consuming around 97% of my CPU resources!! I thought this was odd but took little notice and killed the process and tried again with got the same result. Another kill. At this point I disabled Cups via Startup Services and rebooted - assuming that's where the problem had come from, only to get the same result. Something is not right here, and I don't know which way to turn. Cups doesn't! Sylpheed will download mail (not sure about send) but I cannot compose mail without CPU useage getting close to maximum. Help!! Cheers John -- Mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] "The number of UNIX installations has grown to 10, with more expected" (The UNIX Programmer's Manual, 2nd Edition, June 1972.)
