Of course with the volume of info. stuff is easily missed. This has been fairly common. See https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=229231. Short answer: try these
rm /var/lib/YaST2/printers rm /var/lib/YaST2/ppd_db.ycp and then try again with Yast. This should rebuild the printer database and allow you to get going again. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
