My (Red Hat 9) system has started displaying a "kernel panic" message on the console, then freezing completely, when the "cups" service is started. Everything worked fine a couple of days ago, and as usual, I know of no setup changes made since then. With cups disabled, the system seems to operate correctly, except I can't print, obviously. There is no printer connected directly to this host; cups is used to print across the net. I'm not sure I can give you the exact error message, as it doesn't seem to be stored in the system log or anything.No errors even in /var/log/cups?
Any ideas?

Nothing there except

Nothing I can see there except the first line - Listening to 0:631.
I have a lot of those lines in my log but they always have a hex value greater than 0, e.g. Listening to 7f000001:631.
May be nothing, but that's all that sprang out at me.
With a little help from the CUPS mailing list, I found a workaround at least; I removed the backend program for "serial", and everything works now. Conclusion: Something is weird with the serial ports, serial driver or similar. When the CUPS backend support scans the ports on startup, everything goes wrong.
