Probably a problem somewhere in the Python interpreter, a problem of system-config-printer should have given a Python traceback.
I cannot reproduce the problem on up-to-date Oneiric, both on 64 bit and 32 bit. Does the problem also appear if you enter another URI, like for example x: file:/dev/usblp0 You are probably using a USB-to-parallel adapter. Does nothing appear in the list of auto-detected printers, even nothing without your printer's model name, like "Unknown Printer"? Can you follow the instructions in the section "USB printer" on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingPrintingProblems? ** Changed in: python-defaults (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete ** Changed in: system-config-printer (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete ** Changed in: python-defaults (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/863123 Title: system-config-printer.py crashed with SIGSEGV in _IO_file_xsputn() To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-defaults/+bug/863123/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
