From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 5.0) Description of problem: I have a NEC SuperScript 1400 (PCL4 compatible) hooked up to LPT1. When I try to set it up with printconf-gui I cannot see a list of drivers. Also when I try the console version (printconf-t(something))after entering port data the script bombs out. How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start printconf-gui 2. Enter new printer, enter name and port. 3. No choice for any drivers 1. Start princonf-txx in console 2. Enter net printer, entern name and port. 3. Script dies. Actual Results: No choice of printer drivers and the console version dies. Expected Results: List of drivers to choose from. Additional info:
We (Red Hat) should try to fix this for the next release.
first, am I missing something? Is 'tui' obscene somewhere? text-user-interface? strange. Second, what version of printconf are you running? Do a rpm -qi printconf for me, please. In addition, I do not seem to have any data on the printer model you listed. Is this what you mean by "no drivers?" And, lastly, could you run printconf-tui from the console, and cause that crash. And then attach the traceback information to the bug, please?
It looks like my bug report https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=50896 and the current version in rawhide seems to work better Jean-Yves LENHOF
I'm inclined to think this is resolved.
