Of course it should have been obvious that rpm would lead to the version. The version it reports is 1.1.23-7.6 > > lppasswd is your problem > > man lppasswd I have read man lppasswd but I don't know what to do next. It would appear from the error message that the username is doug, but it says on localhost, and the man lppasswd refers to cups, not localhost, or am I still missing something? If I go to KJobViewer, I can delete everything queued but KDE Print System and KDE Print Test, which are owned by root. If I could find those files in a directory (where is it and what's it called?) I might be able to su and delete them also, and then maybe the system might work, I don't know. > > or search the opensuse list archives.
