Public bug reported: Kernel: 2.6.27-4-generic Gnome: 2.24.0 system-config-printer: 1.0.5 Development Branch Ubuntu 8.10, all updates applied
Scenario: Laptop -- many printers configured from customer sites. Primary home printer configured as internet printing protocol to another Ubuntu system and marked as the default printer. Problem: When not in home office location, some applications (e.g. Text Editor) that properly use Gnome to find the printer will hang during invocation of the print dialog. Work around: Assign a different default printer Reproducible with any default printer as long as the printer is not reachable when the print dialog invoked. ** Affects: meta-gnome2 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- 8.10 Alpha apps lock if default printer can't be reached https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/276531 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
