Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 215390
Print dialog no longer allows to change the command
Last modified: 2013-01-10 16:44:50 EST
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #215307 +++ Description of problem: When printing a page (using Ctrl+P), the dialog window shows Command: lpr where the lpr is in a textfield but it seems disabled. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): galeon-2.0.3-4.fc6 How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Ctrl+P 2. Try to click to the textfield with "lpr", or use tabulator to give focus to that textfield. Actual results: The textfield cannot be focused, therefore it is not possible to change the print command. Expected results: Allow me to change "lpr" to "mpage -2 | lpr" or something similar. -- Additional comment from caillon@redhat.com on 2006-11-13 12:05 EST -- We have not shipped galeon in RHEL since AS 2.1. Why are QE taking packages from outside the RHEL5 base and filing bugs? This is the second beta bug I've gotten filed on things that are not in RHEL5.
Yeah, sorry. Reopening against Fedora, as the package in question came from Fedora Extras.
It is disabled if the selected printer is a CUPS-configured printer, because the printing command doesn't make a lot of sense in that case. On my system if I select the ghostscript/default printer, the print command is reenabled and indeed used, unless i'm mistaken. so my initial reaction would be to close this as 'not a bug': the field is disabled because of the way your printers are configured.
Denis, you are correct. I just wonder if the white textfield would be replaced with a plain text saying something like "CUPS style" in that case. If the command (lpr) is not applicable with CUPS printers, it shouldn't be displayed at all, should it. But if you feel like NOTABUGing this, go ahead.
Jan, thanks for the confirmation. You have a point but I will close the bug nonetheless. Galeon is no longer under active development so I try to save Philip Langdale's (the upstream developper) time for critical issues...
