Quoting Roman Divacky <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (from Thu, 12 Apr 2007

Acroread will use linux system calls to start the shell. This results
in the linux shell (/compat/linux/bin/sh) to start (linuxulator
directory prefixing). The linux shell will use the same linuxulator
directory prefixing to start /compat/linux/usr/bin/lpr. So we're in
the same situation like with Acroread. So when you play around with it
also try to not specify a path to the lpr call and tell us which one
works.
this is not entirely true (or I just read it wrong). it works like this
any binary (fbsd or linux) can run any binary (fbsd or linux). its just that
when linux binary wants to run "xyz" it searches /compat/linux first and then
falls back to /
just a clarification
I think you said the same than I did, just differently (Oliver did
call lpr with the full (correct?) path in acroread and somehow it
didn't work for him).
Bye,
Alexander.
