Minimum 2 other users have the same bug : http://forum.ubuntu- fr.org/viewtopic.php?pid=3329206#p3329206
Here is a workaround proposed by an ubuntu-fr member: * Create /etc/init/cups.conf file and fill it with : #cups start on runlevel [2345] stop on runlevel [!2345] respawn exec /usr/sbin/cupsd -C /etc/cups/cupsd.conf * Then launch the service with : sudo initctl start cups It worked for 1 user (the service automatically starts from now), but not for 2 other users (including me). For us 2, we have to type either "sudo initctl start cups" or "sudo /etc/init.d/cups start" to launch the service at the beginning of each session. Also, we both observed that the command "runlevel" returns "unknown". Maybe the source of the problem is here ? Hope this helps to solve this bug. -- CUPS service stopped https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/524186 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
