I have fixed the services, they're humming along nicely now. Thanks for the help. >> 1. The "add printer queue" pop-up keeps multiplying.

For build 98 only, the duplicate desktop file that causes 2 copies of ospm-applet running. This is fixed in b99. Having 2 copies running does not cause 15 Add Queue Dialog to pop up. Are the pre-filled queue information the same for all or do they refer to different pinters? We have integrated into snv97 to create queues for network printers in the background. So Add Queue Dialog only popup if these are local printers, do you have 7 or more local USB printers connected to your machine? (May sounds silly I asked never the less :) -Ghee > You can remove > /usr/share/gnome/autostart/ospm-applet.desktop to fix this. This hasn't gone so well. I renamed "ospm-applet.desktop" to "ospm-applet.desktop.remove.this.if.it.works" rather than delete it but it's still popping up the dialogs. And I do only have one printer attached directly to a usb socket on the machine, though there is another usb printer attached to an Apple Airport Express Base station. And it might not be 15 instances but it's a lot ... and growing! There are over 20 instances now. The prefilled queue info is present, it's all the same, but it's wrong. I've attempted to change it but it keeps dropping back to the original. Still prints, though.
