Description Need Real Name 2008-02-03 15:10:29 UTC

Description of problem:


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Select System > Administration > Printing on Gnome menu
2. Click New Printer
3. Click AppSocket/HP JetDirect
4. Enter Print Server IP address, for example, 192.168.0.110
5. Leave Port number at default 9100
6. Click Forward

Actual results: The hourglass spins forever.

Expected results: It should advance to printer model selection dialog.

Additional info:
The exact same procedure with another Linux distro immediately advances to
printer model selection dialog (correct).
I have hplip and hpijs packages installed.  The print server is IOGear USB Print
Server.

What does 'rpm -q system-config-printer' say?

Comment 2 mdeiss 2008-02-04 17:47:41 UTC

I have the same problem on two machines:

rpm -q system-config-printer returns
system-config-printer-0.7.74.10-2.fc8

The out-of-the-box FC8-DVD-ISO installed version seems to work OK as I've
installed two printers OK.  But, after the latest FC8 updates to various
programs, the printer-config program gets broken.

When running in a terminal window, I see the following:
fetchDevices
queryDevices
Lock acquired for devices thread
Devices thread started

Fetching devices
Closing connection (devices)
Releasing devices lock
Acquiring devices lock
