Well, I re-installed (emerged in gentoo parlance) gimp-print, foomatic (and
related packages) with newer versions. I still have the same problems with
the command-line foomatic-configure. When I try to use the web admin tools
with cups (Add Printer), I cannot select the device. I put in the name I
want, click on the "Continue" button, the Device dropdown is empty - no
device choices.
In the cups-doc.html that Kathy suggested, "5. Configure CUPS." says to
basically use the "Add Printer" with a web browser and follow the directions,
which I have done.
Any ideas on how to get a device to be recognized?
I do have /dev/lp0 and I can cat a text file to it.
Thanks,

Did you do /etc/init.d/cupsd stop then /etc/init.d/cupsd start after
doing your upgrades? Is the parport module loaded? Do you have any error
messages regarding this in /var/log/cups?
