Trying to print directly from the cli produces:
# ll / | lpr
lpr: Error - scheduler not responding!
I started the update early this morning and went back to bed. Before
that the system had been down for a few minutes, then again after seven,
my daughter was complaining she was unable to send a message that had to
go! That leads me to believe I may have a corrupted file somewhere?
Is there a "yum" command that will force replacement of the entire
update session? I suspect not but would hate to pick them all out
individually if not necessary.
Neither printer works, the Epson on the parallel port or the HP6840
wireless which reports "Connection: close" when I try to print the
morning crossword puzzle? And on the "print screen" all that's displayed
is a generic postscript selection?
