Indeed, we have a big problem getting CUPS to work with FreeBSD 5.1.
The root of the problem is in the fact that it does not install
properly! (I think this is completely the responsibility of the
folks at FreeBSDMall, who clearly didn't test the system they sell in
the box!) I suppose I
I have an AMD K6 based system with almost everything on ultra-wide,
ultra-fast SCSI. The exceptions are video, sound and floppy disk.
The IDE floppy disk works fine if, for example, I boot from it on
this machine. Further, I have removed it and tested it on a Windows
2K system, where it
Perhaps this is discussed somewhere, but so far I haven't found
anything that helps. I have two SCSI CDROM drives (/dev/cd0 and
/dev/cd1) and an IDE floppy drive. All of these drives are mountable
and work flawlessly if I am logged in as root. Trying to mount any
of them as any other
I have set vfs.usermount=1, and now I can create a local directory
(call it xxx) in my home dir and use it successfully to do
mount -t cd9660 /dev/cd0 xxx
or
mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 xxx
However, if I attempt to use the standard mount points, /cdrom or
/floppy, to do the same thing, like
I have an SMC Networks model SMC7004ABR router which forms the hub of
my network. It has a parallel printer port and a queueing system
with a fair amount of RAM, so it acts somewhat like an LPR printer
queue, though it does not have any smarts for doing filtering. I
would like to (1) assign
I am trying to get a networked old HP printer to work. I have the
following printcap entries for it, using gs filtering:
# Entry for device ljet3 (output to ljet3.raw, I hope)
lp|ljet3|Ghostscript device ljet3:\
:lp=ljet3.raw:\
:sd=/var/spool/output/ljet3:\
Problem solved!

Has anyone gotten one of these to work? If so, would you mind letting
me know how to configure the ghostscript fliter for it? Thanks!
