The "Printer Properties" button is completely unresponsive for me. I can click it all I want, but it does nothing at all. Nothing crashes or freezes. It just acts like I never clicked it. I'm currently using the package from the ubuntu repositories, though I had also been using versions 9.1 and 9.2 that I had downloaded as .bin files from adobe's website.
Until last night I was using the .bin installation file from adobe for version 9.1. I believe I installed that before I upgraded to Karmic. I know I've been able to use the "Printer Properties" button since I upgraded. But last night was when I first noticed that the button wouldn't work. So I checked to see if there was a newer version, and downloaded the 9.2 bin file, and installed it. The button still did nothing. Then after discovering that there was an acroread package in the ubuntu respositories, I uninstalled all copies of adobe reader that I found on my machine (9.2 and also an 8.x version that I think was installed a while back from a deb file I downloaded from adobe), and installed the acroread from the ubuntu repositories. But the "Printer Properties" button remains unresponsive. Running it from a terminal provides no debug information or anything. It seems that it's related to something else on the system, since my adobe reader 9.1 hadn't been updated at all for a long time, but the button stopped working recently anyway. No difference after upgrading or switching to the ubuntu repository version. I'm using Ubuntu 9.10 i386. My other machine that runs Ubuntu 9.10 amd64 is working fine so far, but I haven't done updates in a couple days. After I get some printing done from that machine (since the button still works and I can switch it to draft mode and grayscale), I'll run the updates and see if the button still works or not (I think I still need to switch that one to the acroread version from the ubuntu repositories, though, too). -- Acroread crashes when trying to modify printer settings https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/489313 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
