Subject:   CUPS wont print inside GNOME
Message-ID:  <BAY126-W53A132DAE794C3769D505DCA200@phx.gbl>

I have the latest GNOME installed from ports and have the odd issue of CUPS=
 not wanting to work with it right.

If i access the CUPS web configuration page=2C i can print test pages just =
fine and not a single issue=2C but if i try and print a test page from insi=
de GNOME=2C including trying with the gnome-cups-manager port=2C it will st=
op and present the following error
"/usr/local/libexec/cups/filter/pstoraster failed"this error will carry ove=
r to the web interface and those jobs are pretty much hosed=2C yet i can cr=
eate a test print from web interface even when this error is present.

I do notice that test pages from web interface come from user "anonymous" w=
hereas test pages from gnome-cups-manager are from the respected user that =
ran it.
even root is unable to print from inside gnome.
