I installed at 16th of August 2006 to another (desktop) PC also Kubuntu 6.06 LTS and there I installed at first network printer in the beginning. I did not make any updates before - just clean Kubuntu. Then I enabled universe, multiverse repositories and made dist-upgrade as always. After restart I still could access to the CUPS. Then I enabled also KDE 3.5.4 repository and also KOffice and Amarok repositories from kubuntu.org/packages, made again dist-upgrade and after restart I still could access to CUPS! Amazing! I could also print to this network printer (HP LaserJet 6P with TrendNet printserver using ipp protocol and 9100 port as always).
But KDE started already at version 3.5.2 to announce me, that it could not create mcop folder (artsmessage). It's quite boring to see at each login this error message... I checked at ~/.mcop and everything seemed to fine. Also sound worked. Even with 2.6.15-26-386 (26.46) kernel! I just don't understand... -- Printing broken by Updates of 2006 Aug 1 https://launchpad.net/bugs/55205 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
