Your strace output has a possable answer; Line nr, 5 connect(17,{sa_family=AF_INET,sin_port=htons(631), sin_addr=inet_addr("127.0. line wraps and possably cut and paste may have corrupted your text, what we see is; ("127.0. I presume the 0.0.1") got cut away. 6) send(17, "POST / HTTP/1.1\r\n", 17, 0) = 17 7) send(17, "Content-Length: 137\r\n", 21, 0) = 21 8) send(17, "Content-Type: application/ipp\r\n", 31, 0) = -1 EPIPE (Broken pipe) 9) --- SIGPIPE (Broken pipe) @ 0 (0) --- 10) send(17, "Content-Type: application/ipp\r\n", 31, 0) = -1 EPIPE (Broken pipe) 11) --- SIGPIPE (Broken pipe) @ 0 (0) --- 12) close(17) This looks like whats causing the problem, gnumeric is trying to find out what printer you have and howto use/communicate with it, or thats what it looks like to me. When i start gnumeric i see a totaly different story. I have attached a file (if the mailing list allows attachments). Of course that may not be the problem because i cannot see the rest of your strace output, you can if you wish send it to me as an attachment privatly, if you do please do not edit the file created by strace simply attach it in a mail, some editors may well line wrap the file and thierfor make it hard to read. If this mail fails because of the attachment i will send another to the list without the attachment. -- If the Linux community is a bunch of theives because they try to imitate windows programs, then the Windows community is built on organized crime.
