I have a home built PC with a partitioned IDE drive and a 4 GB SCSI drive. I've installed Mandrake 6.1 in two places. A partition on the IDE drive and on the SCSI drive. On the IDE installation everything works fine (sound card, modem, printer). However, on the SCSI installation the printer will not work (sound card and modem work fine). If I su as root and launch the control-panel and bring up the printer configuration tool and attempt to add a new printer, the dialog for add printer does not detect any printers attached (I'm using the parallel port). I've checked my modules (shown below), but I still can't figure out what is wrong. Does anybody have any other ideas on where I might find the problem (and/or how to fix this)?
