Problem:
-------
- Printing to an LTSP terminal resulted in no output on the printer.
- The cups admin web page showed that a job was submitted, but wasn't
able to print due to the printer being busy.
- Running /usr/sbin/jetpipe from a shell on the LTSP terminal gave the
error message:
bash-4.1# /usr/sbin/jetpipe /dev/usblp0 9100
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/sbin/jetpipe", line 45, in <module>
import daemon
ImportError: No module named daemon
Workaround:
-----------
I searched the web a bit and ran across James Linder's 'improved'
jetpipe post at
http://www.mail-archive.com/ltsp-discuss@lists.sourceforge.net/msg39920.html.
I did a quick make and then a
cp -i /home/kent/p910nd/p910nd /opt/ltsp/i386/usr/sbin/jetpipe
rebooted the terminal and printing worked perfectly.
FYI:
----
The Fedora 15 installation is using a Fedora 14 chroot per this post:
