Hi, Alexander.  I print using lpd/lpr to an HP 882 via a Netgear PS 104 
Print Server.  I've been religious about running up2date regularly, but 
it's been a while since I updated the kernel as you can see above.

My machine uses a Celeron 2.4GHz on an Intel D865PERL with dual nics and 
is using Firestarter as firewall front end and NAT device.  My internal 
net uses fixed IP addressing.  The only thing I changed tonight was the 
kernel, and yes, I updated initscripts when the download became 
available.  I can ping the print server, so I know there is basic 
connectivity.  The system is using Gnome Print Manager 0.0.1 straight 
from the default Gnome menu.  And that's about it!  Any ideas??

Thanks,
Dick
