Hi all, Obligatory info: Running KDE 3.5.3 on FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE.
I just wanted to report on some odd stuff that I encountered after upgrading CUPS to 1.2 late last week. I went to print something from KDE, and couldn't. Realized "Oh yeah, I upgraded CUPS. Need to start it." So I did. After restarting CUPS kdeprint wasn't working properly. It couldn't get a list of printers from CUPS. I noticed in the KDE printer control dialogue that it was connecting to CUPS via a socket, whereas in the past it used localhost:631. So, I edited the cupsd.conf file so that it wouldn't listen on a socket, just localhost:631. Restarted CUPS again, and voila... solved problem. I also had to manually remove the old cupsd.sh from /usr/local/etc/rc.d. And then had to add 'cupsd_enable="YES"' to /etc/rc.conf of course. Just thought I'd mention what I encountered to the list in case anyone else runs into this situation. I'm also curious as to why kdeprint doesn't seem to handle connecting to cupsd via a socket very well.
