ah, well that'd be the problem.
when you run 'gv test.ps', gv invokes gs to format the test.ps
page. for whatever reason, your version of ghostscript can't
read the test.ps file. maybe you've got a dud version of
ghostscript, or your test.ps file is corrupted. mine looks like
this:
15:48 bozar:/usr/share/apsfilter/setup% ls -l test.ps
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 176784 May 25 2000 test.ps
15:48 bozar:/usr/share/apsfilter/setup% md5sum test.ps
0802862bd15977f946bd3fec4612d597 test.ps
you might want to check that you have the correct test.ps file.
(i've got apsfilter 6.0.0-1 installed from woody.)
glad to see that you got the printer working outside of the
apsfilter test page, though!
