I'm using Mandrake 9.1 and had printer/Kghostview
problems (mostly crashing when i tried to print) I
tracked down some KDE bug reports on the subject, (i
wish i wrote them down) and i traced my problem to a
problem with using CUPS and kghostview while a kppp
connection was established. weird huh? anyway i changed
my print system to the generic unix LPD print system
and haven't had a problem since then. Just my $.02.

Somebody scribbled about [newbie] Printing Problems
with KDE Programs
Hi Guys,
Had a weird problem develop over the weekend. I am
completely unable to
print from a number of programs - the one thing they
seem to have in
common is that they are all KDE progs: Kover, KWrite
KGhostview and
I just noticed this with Mandrake cooker 9.2 beta 2
and
I am not sure yet
if it's KDE specifically. This much I do know - kde
programs that handle
pdf won't handle pdf anymore. Forthermore printing
(via
acroread, which
uses kprinter) puts the print job in kprint job viewer
but that launches
a perl that eventually (read real soon now) eats up
all
available ram and
swap.
I'm updating via urpmi at the moment - maybe that will
fix it. This is the
first time I have noticed this issue...
