Hello, List:
My Win98 box froze up about 5 weeks ago while installing
the then newest Netscape. i evenutally had to give up
and hit the <Reset> key. That fried the Registry, and
the old backups didn't work. So, with great relief i
was _finally_ able to put rh71 into the box and hang
the Win98 directory tree as a relic.
i've had medium-poor luck at getting things configured.
My printer is an OkiPage 10e, and the driver worked
fine for it for about a week -- ending two weeks ago.
i don't remember the earliest symptoms of failure, but
the current state is that during boot, it gets to
(re-typing by hand; please forgive errors)
Starting lpd: Winbond Super-IO detection, now testing ports 3F0, 370,
250, 4E, 2E ...

Winbond LPT Config: Port mode = ECP and EPP-1.9
SMSC Super-IO detection, now testing Ports 2F0, 370 ...
and then it hangs forever. i have to <Ctrl-Alt-Del>
and then hit 'i' for interactive boot, skip starting
lpd, and get in.
For awhile, i was getting something to the effect of
(don't remember, exactly)
Spurious 8259A interrupt: IRQ7
That lasted for about three to five reboots about a
week ago, but i didn't notice it tonight, my only
reboot since then.
When i do
# /etc/rc.d/init.d/lpd start
it hangs forever. In printconf-gui , things seem
alright, but when i try to print a test page, it
throws up a dialog-box with "There was an error trying
to print the test page." In the term window from which
i started "printconf-gui &", it shows
Status Information:
sending job 'root@jwest1+469' to lp0-OkiPage_10e@localhost
connecting to 'localhost', attempt 1
cannot open connection to localhost - Connection refused
Make sure LPD server is running on the server
i'll attach a copy of the most recent dmesg and the
output of my "ifconfig-a". i would sure appreciate it
if someone could help me to get my printer working.
Thanx;
john
