3bsd# make showconfig ===> The following configuration options are available for xfce4-print-4.4.1_1: LPR=off "Use lpr as printing system" CUPS=on "Use cups as printing system" LETTER=off "Use letter paper format instead of A4" ===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings 3bsd# Its odd because the cups test page works, printing from mousepad and firefox works, but abiword bombs completely. In the short space of time I see it on the screen after clicking print I can see there is no entry for the printer. > I had similar problems until I removed lpr from the base. > To do this, I added this to /etc/make.conf: > WITHOUT_LPR=true > CUPS_OVERWRITE_BASE=yes > NO_LPR=yes > and then rebuilt and reinstalled world and cups. I have tried adding lpd_enable="NO" top rc.conf then realised cups replaces lpd anyway so that was no help. Somewhere along the line I have added [system=10] add path 'unlpt*' mode 0660 group cups add path 'ulpt*' mode 0660 group cups add path 'lpt*' mode 0660 group cups to /etc/devfs.rules and devfs_system_ruleset="system" to rc.conf I wanted to avoid having to buildword just now ... and just read this thead ; > CUPS installs its own version of lpr, lpq and lpd > under /usr/local/bin. > Therefore, be sure to delete lpr , lpq and lpd under > /usr/bin and then symlink from /usr/local/bin to /usr/bin. although lpd looks to be under /usr/sbin on my system? Any further help on figuring this out appreciated! _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
