Oh. Which part is exactly bad practice? Do you mean adding commands to /upgrade.site or to /etc/rc.shutdown or both, or in general using config -ef /bsd to disable drivers? Is there any info which can be added to cups/pkg/README-main to make the process more automated for disabling ulpt in kernel which plays nice with sysupgrade or syspatch? -- Regards, Mikolaj

I went for adding: printf 'disable ulpt\nq\n' | config -ef /bsd && \ sha256 -h /var/db/kernel.SHA256 /bsd to /etc/rc.shutdown and /upgrade.site and that makes it work the way I would like to. Would that be worth adding to ports/print/cups/pkg/README-main? -- Regards, Mikolaj

Which I am now thrilled to use for disable amdgpu. I can now skip using boot -c Boot -c is often used to enable or disable things to allow successful booting at all. -- Chris Bennett

I like it, thanks Antoine. It has one disadvantage. It doesn't integrate well with sysupgrade(8) and need one additional reboot, to get desired kernel configuration. For me it's easy to forget this one additional reboot. -- Regards, Mikolaj

Yes, I just bought my first printer, a Brother DCP-L2550DW, and it works fine with ulpt(4) and lpd(8). It needed one customization: my printcap calls an output filter that (for non-PDF/PostScript) inserts a blank line in front and adds carriage returns to all lines. I can print plain text, PostScript, or PDF simply by passing the file to lpr(1).
