JohnThanks everyone for the advice, I achieved the result,
unfortunately no update was offered. I only got the
standard M9.0 install, which are broken.
I was connected to the net.
I guess I'm down to forcing cooker installs, as an OS with a broken
printer driver is useless, so I'm going to have to take the risk.

If there is a problem with the gimpprint driver for your printer type why not mention it on the printer forum at Mandrake Club? http://www.mandrakeclub.com/modules.php?name=Splatt_Forum
You do not need a membership, and printer questions are often answered by Till Klampetter Mandrake's printer guru.

then re-installing them via the MCC Package Management? Wouldn't this be
so much easier than mucking around with RPM's that will break his box?
...and I rather forgot what exactly was the reasoning behind installing
new drivers in the first place...
backend driver, is broken, it worked up till M8.2 quite well, but someone tinkered
with it and now it's broken,I'm basically waiting on a bugfix update,which is
really why I went for the cooker variety, not knowing the risks. There is
a tarball but I am loathed to mix rpm's and tarballs, remember gimpprint
is a ghostscript pluggin and has to work with it and I don't want something
installed I cannot take off again.
