wompom:/tmp# find /etc -name '*xprint*' /etc/X11/Xsession.d/92xprint-xpserverlist /etc/init.d/xprint /etc/default/xprint /etc/rc0.d/K20xprint /etc/rc1.d/K20xprint /etc/rc2.d/S20xprint /etc/rc3.d/S20xprint /etc/rc4.d/S20xprint /etc/rc5.d/S20xprint /etc/rc6.d/K20xprint Looks like they haven't, but I don't think that's what needs to be fixed.
