This problem still exists in 8.10. My work has a cups server, and my /etc/cups/client.conf points to this server by ip.
When that ip is not available (ie not on the work network) cups hangs for roughly 5 minutes. This seems to affect any program that uses cups (including wine, which will hang for roughly 5 minutes before it starts any program). -- system-config-printer hangs for several minutes while loading if network is connected but remote printer is unreachable. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/207395 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
