Hi, about 1 week ago Iinstalled mageia1 on a newly formatted partition & selected kde option. 1st problem was that cups was not installed. After installing cups the printer was recognised, but will not print a test page. The msg is that the page has gone to the printer, and the jobs list shows printed, but no output. I have also tried installing the printer with hp-toolbox, this sends me to a hp site for a binary file, but does not name it and I can not identify the required file.
These problems should not occur on a stand alone box with a clean install
I also tried uninstalling cups. This resulted in deleting many pkgs including drakconfig, libreoffice among many others. The packagers should look at this problem.
Thank god I did not try to upgrade my Mandriva installation which is still fully functional.
All help appreciated.
