Hi. I upgraded to gnome 2.16 a few days ago, and just realized that lpr/lpq and now acting oddly... I have used this system for 2 years with zero problems. Our sysadmin told me there have been zero changes to our print servers. Below you will see it is a perm issue that has manifested itself alongside the gnome upgrade though it may be totally unrelated... uname -a FreeBSD pc-racine1.mcmaster.ca 6.1-RC2 FreeBSD 6.1-RC2 #0: Wed May 3 10:02:44 EDT 2006 The issue, in a nutshell, is that suddenly I can't print when logged in to an account other than root... I have no idea what could have caused this unless gnome does some perm changes... if this is the wrong forum please forgive, and if you have any suggestions many many thanks. As root all is well... pc-racine1# lpq JetDirect lpd: no jobs queued on this port pc-racine1# exit As myself (non-root) no go...
