[gentoo-user] Upgrade of hplip
Hi all, yesterday I upgraded hplip. I should not, after a bad experience on FreeBSD. But, while on FreeBSD I was able to downgrade to the previuos version, I could not do the same on Gentoo. The sequence: - after upgrading hplip I ran hp-setup: the printer has been configured - then I tried to print a page: the job starts but no printing at all - thinking to have done something wrong I re-emerge hplip - then I ran hp-setup: the printer is recognized but when I click on Next button the program hangs and I have to kill it - so I tried to configure the printer using cups with Firefox: http://localhost:631 gives me "404 not found" - a ping on 127.0.0.1 is successful and nmap on 127.0.0.1 tells me the port 631 is open. May-be something wrong in /etc/cups/cupd.conf, but ... what? Any tips? Why is it not possible to downgrade hplip to the previous version? Cheers emilio -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
