Marcia,
Run PrinterDrake through the console. You will get extra messages there that
you don't get through the Mandrake Control Center. I'll bet that your
getting the following messages.
rmmod: module parport_probe is not loaded
modprobe: Can't locate module parport_probe
modprobe: Can't locate module parport_probe
rmmod: module parport_probe is not loaded
If so, I think that we have a generic problem with Mandrake 9.0. Weird thing
is, my son has almost the exact same setup that I have K7S5A MB with 1GHz
Duron, Nvidia video. His works fine.
Linus
Oh, you missed a later message, my system is NOT fixed. Still broken.
