Description Bill Nottingham 2006-08-22 12:26:52 EDT

Description of problem:

When using OO.o to print, I was only given a list of ~30 printers; a later
run of 'lpstat -a' showed 62 printers, but the printing widget never updated.

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

gtk2-2.10.2-2.fc6
openoffice.org-core-2.0.3-7.9

Comment 1 Matthias Clasen 2006-08-25 14:30:12 EDT

John, how does this work, are we not monitoring cups for new printers, after
initially populating the list ? 

What does libgnomeprintui do here ?

Comment 2 John (J5) Palmieri 2006-08-25 15:04:54 EDT

We should have a timeout that kicks in every three seconds and calls
list_printers or something like that.  Libgnomeprintui does something similar to
this.

Comment 3 Matthias Clasen 2006-08-28 12:59:46 EDT

oh, I see you are adding the timeout, but with and awesome interval of 300000
seconds instead of 3...

Comment 4 Matthias Clasen 2006-08-28 13:52:32 EDT

Fixed in 2.10.2-4.fc6
