Printing from my OS/2-based laptop to my FreeBSD box driving a DJ 500C does take a little bit on my setup. Once the job is sent though the printer will fire up. > Jul 16 15:29:57 chub /kernel: pid 265: lpd: uid 0: exited on signal 11 > : > Jul 17 10:28:25 chub /kernel: pid 1211: lpd: uid 0: exited on signal 11 > : > Jul 17 10:42:21 chub /kernel: pid 1232: lpd: uid 0: exited on signal 11 > > > I'd like to know what the signal 11 indicates (memory problems?). > Discerning individuals will notice the I/O ports for lpt0-2 are skewed: > made necessary by some hardware issue I don't yet understand.
