Here is a list of items that I have updated recently with apt-get: aalib_1.4rc5-fr1_i386.rpm kdesdk-gimp_3.0.5a-3_i386.rpm cabextract_0.6-fr1_i386.rpm lock celestia_1.2.5-fr1_i386.rpm lokkit_0.50-21.8.0_i386.rpm cups_1%3a1.1.17-0.2_i386.rpm mysql_3.23.56-1.80_i386.rpm cups-devel_1%3a1.1.17-0.2_i386.rpm mysql-devel_3.23.56-1.80_i386.rpm cups-libs_1%3a1.1.17-0.2_i386.rpm mysql-server_3.23.56-1.80_i386.rpm evolution_1.0.8-11_i386.rpm nmap_2%3a3.20-fr1_i386.rpm gkrellm_1%3a2.1.8-fr1a_i386.rpm nmap-frontend_2%3a3.20-fr1_i386.rpm glibc_2.3.2-4.80_i686.rpm nscd_2.3.2-4.80_i386.rpm glibc-common_2.3.2-4.80_i386.rpm partial glibc-debug_2.3.2-4.80_i686.rpm samba_2.2.7-4.8.0_i386.rpm glibc-debug-static_2.3.2-4.80_i386.rpm samba-client_2.2.7-4.8.0_i386.rpm glibc-devel_2.3.2-4.80_i386.rpm samba-common_2.2.7-4.8.0_i386.rpm glibc-profile_2.3.2-4.80_i386.rpm samba-swat_2.2.7-4.8.0_i386.rpm glibc-utils_2.3.2-4.80_i386.rpm zlib_1.1.4-8.8x_i386.rpm gnome-lokkit_0.50-21.8.0_i386.rpm zlib-devel_1.1.4-8.8x_i386.rpm It was after these updates that I became unable to print. Does anyone know what here may have caused the problem? If you recall, I have a Lexmark z33 and had been using the driver they provide from their website with LPD. After running apt-get update and upgrade last weekend my printer stopped functioning with any app but KWord. Now, for some reason, it is not even printing with KWord, likely because I have tried every other possible configuration of CUPS+foomatic, LPR, and goat sacrifice and have confused the system. I have reinstalled the printer driver about a dozen times. This driver had worked fine with RH 7.2, 6.3 and 8.0 and WAS working with 9 until last weekend when I ran these updates. I can still drive the printer from my OS X iBook, so the printer itself is fine. If I can identify a specific package that has disable the driver, I will remove and reinstall the older version, hopefully to regain printing capabilities. I would gladly provide and further information that would assist a diagnosis of this problem for me, and deeply appreciate any offered assistance. I'm crossposting to my local LUG.
