Hi list, I'm not aware if this question has been asked on this list or not. But why the damn mailman gives out email addresses in quotes? I'm talking about this: On ..... Dinesh Joshi dj(a)xyz.com wrote: > sadasdas > .... I know technology can't solve all user incompetence but can't mailman just obfuscate mail addresses in quotes? I've been harping over this for a long time. Each time I tell people to configure their MUA not to quote my / anybody's email address but it'll be much easier if mailman can screen the messages for email addresses in quotes and remove / edit them out? -- Regards, Dinesh A.

Kubuntu 6.10 Problem with shared printing
by Rony 28 May '07

28 May '07

Hello All, I am using Kubuntu 6.10 as my local printing machine and its cupsd.conf is as below. However, my laptop Kubuntu 6.06 connected through wired lan is not able to 'see' this printer. I uninstalled the firestarter firewall but still no result. Lpstat -a on server shows this....."HP610C accepting requests since Sat 21 Apr 2007 12:03:19 PM IST" Where could the problem be? What commands could I try in the client machines to 'see' the printer? In the client's browser, 'server_ip_address:631' shows the printer. Any packages I could be missing? In Sarge I followed online instructions from some site and was able to print from the laptop. But no other distro after that could duplicate the same. I manually added the shared printer in the client machine but it does not pass on print jobs to the server. This is my cupsd.conf Any help will be appreciated.

It seems my kid brother had played around with group and membership settings I saw following in log kdm: :0[3833]: saving groups failed: Invalid argument kdm: :0[3833]: Client start failed kdm: :0[3833]: restoring groups failed: Invalid argument Then I just casually checked in users and groups configuration and found the problem. Thanks a lot for the help ..coz in the process I cleaned up my home dir which i was putting off for some reason or other! -- The Future is Open...The Future is LINUX
