Description Tim Waugh 2006-07-27 13:27:59 UTC 
Description of problem:
Even when a queue has been automatically created by hal-lpadmin, eggcups shows a
dialog asking which driver to use.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
desktop-printing-0.19-11

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Plug in a printer
2. Log in on VT1 and observe 'lpstat -s' -- queue is already added
3. Log in via GDM
  
Actual results:
'Select driver' dialog

Expected results:
No dialog

Additional info:
This patch makes it work as I expect it to.

Why is eggcups looking at gconf?  What's that for?

Comment 2 John (J5) Palmieri 2006-07-27 20:09:34 UTC 
How does it work in stateless?  If I reboot my computer the queue should have
been removed.  eggcups uses gconf to remeber what was chosen last so it can map
a printer not in the foomatics database to one that is in it.
Comment 3 Tim Waugh 2006-07-28 16:38:14 UTC 
Differently. :-)  With stateless, we'll have to remember whole PPD files, and
gconf just isn't appropriate.

The stateless code isn't completely fleshed out yet, but the original outline
design is here:

canon m170, desktop-printing-0.19-12, turboprint-1.94-4 (
http://www.turboprint.info/download2.html )
$lpstat -s
system default destination: tp0
device for tp0:
hal:///org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/usb_device_4a9_170a_F08759_if1_printer_noserial

When plugging printer, "Specify printer Driver" dialog always appears.
