That are only filters, I think I need the foomatic-db and foomatic-db-engine to use these? When I install this package in my image, and try to print an image I get this : lpr Unsupported document-format "image/jpeg". I know this has something to do with filters. When I install cups-filters then I can print images but I can't install foomatic-filters since it conflicts with cups-filters. So I was wondering how I could add more drivers for these filters, or am I totally wrong in this? kind regards -- Steven Descheemaeker Software developer Limotec BVBA Bosstraat 21 8570 Vichte -- _______________________________________________ Openembedded-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openembedded.org/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-devel
