Hello,<br>
<br>
This is a newbie question. Please be gentle. Any help would be
appreciated in resolving this issue. For some reason whenever I'd try
to print, the printing interface ( with my printers and "print to pdf"
) would pop up ( in gnome), I'd choose a printer and it would
hang/lockup. This started today. Everything was fine on Friday. When I
open up a console and type: <br>
<br>
system-config-printer<br>
<br>
I got the following error message after doing cntrl +c: <br>
<br>
<br>
$ system-config-printer<br>
^CTraceback (most recent call last):<br>
<br>

KeyboardInterrupt<br>
The application 'system-config-printer.py' lost its connection to the
display :0.0;<br>
most likely the X server was shut down or you killed/destroyed<br>
the application.<br>
<br>
I reinstalled cups for the heck of it and now get this error when I use
the same approach:<br>
<br>
system-config-printer<br>
