More data: On an i386 laptop when I run system-config-printer I get this: # system-config-printer *** BUG *** In pixman_region32_init_rect: Invalid rectangle passed Set a breakpoint on '_pixman_log_error' to debug I'm guessing that this means to run gdb, set a breakpoint, and then run the program. However, "the program" is a shell script which runs a python script, /usr/share/system-config-printer/system-config-printer.py, but gdb is useful only on compiled programs, not on these scripts, even if I knew how to use it. I've run 'strace system-config-printer' which produces prodigious output, but no enlightenment, only this same info: write(2, "*** BUG ***\nIn pixman_region32_i"..., 117*** BUG *** In pixman_region32_init_rect: Invalid rectangle passed Set a breakpoint on '_pixman_log_error' to debug with nothing preceding it that suggests the cause of this error (to me). A similar F21 install on an old AMD Athlon i386 system works differently. The icons in s-c-p are sized normally. I've searched for differences that might account for this without success. -- David A.
