Background: FBSD 6.1 (recently upgraded from 5.5). Did fairly massive upgrade of apps. foomatic-db-20060922 = up-to-date with port foomatic-db-engine-20060922,1 = up-to-date with port foomatic-db-hpijs-1.4 = up-to-date with port foomatic-filters-3.0.2_4 = up-to-date with port cups-1.2.2 = up-to-date with port cups-base-1.2.2 = up-to-date with port cups-pstoraster-8.15 = up-to-date with port Printer is HP5550 locally connect via usb /dev/ulpt0 After upgrade, the printer would just spit out raw PS (worked prior). I tried deleting anything cups or foo related, and re-installed. When I try and add the printer back in via the cups web gui, it hangs just before it should bring up the printer selection. The error log looks like it's recursively adding the same ppd's over and over. See below. I've searched and not seen this, so I have to assume it's something unique to my install. If I wait long enough (and the browser doesn't time out, the printer brand select page comes up, and finally the model. I go to print the test page from the cups web, and all it does is spit out PS again, at least thats what it act like. (I'm using the foomatic/hpijs PPD) Is it CUPS, foomatic, gs? Also, why is the port on 1.2.2 when 1.2.4 is current for cups? thanks jim [21/Oct/2006:10:51:39 -0700] [cups-driverd] Updating ppd "foomatic-db-ppds/PPD /PPD/PPD/PPD/PPD/PPD/PPD/PPD/PPD/PPD/PPD/PPD/PPD/PPD/PPD/PPD/PPD/PPD/PPD/PPD/PPD /PPD/PPD/PPD/PPD/PPD/Infote"... it keeps do this (and consuming most of the cpu)
