Description Dominique Leuenberger 2006-11-13 18:43:42 UTC

Hi,

Today I finally tried to connect my printer (HP PSC 1610= to the Notebook, installed with openSUSE 10.2, updated to Beta2.

While going to Yast, the printer is detected. Clicking EDIT to configure it. First: The printer list is much shorter than in 10.1!?  What happened?

Ok, then selecting PhotoSmart (which is somewhat closest) just gives a message box, that this printer is not supported by openSUSE.

With SUSE Linux 10.1 I was perfectly able to use this printer.

What more can I provide you for testing / analysing? (ok: I can NOT send you the printer :-) )

It seems just to be a missing package (which was also not proposed to be installed by the system).

After installing the package hplip, the printer seems to be detected.
hplip was not installed, only hplip-hpijs was installed.

The printer was NOT connected to the notebook during setup, but got connected sometimes after.

Yast did not give any messages about a missing package. I think in 10.1, I had the printer connected during setup, I can thus not say if it's a new behavior or not, but nevertheless, it's a 'buggy' behavior.

There was Bug 210984 which should be fixed for beta2.

I think the crucial question is how you updated to beta2.
Did you install openSUSE beta2 from scratch (i.e. did you format
the hard disk partition into which beta2 gets installed)
or did you update an installed system (if yes, which exact
version was your installed system)?

thanks for pointing to that bug. I didn't find that one.

I came to beta 2 over the factury upgrade. So I was probably much to late.

In a fresh installed VM-Session (fresh installed yesterday using the CDs), HPLIP is installed (even without a printer connected), so I think we can close that bug.

For me it seems perfectly solved.

Dominique
