[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1815339] Re: Printer stopped printing paper size 4"x6" after update ghostscript to 9.26
FWIW, for distributions which haven't published the fix yet (e.g. Slackware AFAICS), RIP_MAX_CACHE can be overwritten by adding this line to cupsd.conf (also editable through CUPS web interface on localhost:631) : RIPCache 0 (replace 0 by whatever suits for you). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to ghostscript in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1815339 Title: Printer stopped printing paper size 4"x6" after update ghostscript to 9.26 Status in GS-GPL: Fix Released Status in ghostscript package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in ghostscript source package in Trusty: Fix Released Status in ghostscript source package in Xenial: Fix Released Status in ghostscript source package in Bionic: Fix Released Status in ghostscript source package in Cosmic: Fix Released Status in ghostscript source package in Disco: Fix Released Status in Slackware: New Bug description: I have an issue with Ghostscript and printing.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1501421] [NEW] Ubuntu 14.04 displays strange characters
Public bug reported: Quite often, when "opening" the laptop after it has been "closed" for a while, the display is completely messed up, i.e. most characters are corrupted with alien-like characters. Attached is an explicit screenshot of Thunderbird tabs (the first tab should read "Courrier entrant", the second line "Relever ; Écrire ; ? ; Adresses ; Étiquettes ; Filtre rapide", etc.), but most applications (Firefox, gnome-terminal, LibreOffice, Gnumeric, windows titles and menus, right-click menus, etc.) are affected. Some of these issues (e.g. tabs) can be fixed by hovering them with the cursor, but not all.
