|
|
I'm trying to make cups to work, but when i start it, it take 100% of the cpu and it doesn't work, I'm using kernel 2.6 beta with lastest cups installed, i have read the linux printing guide and everything looks normal, the thing just don't want to work, i re-emerged cups with different flags to test and nothing, does cupsd need anything special from the kernel?
Thanks in advance and excuse my english, is really bad |

I have had the same issue. I thought something was terribly wrong. What I found was that the first time cups was started, the CPU would go to 100% and stay there for a couple of minutes and then settle down to normal. If you don't let it finish and settle down, it will continue to do that everytime you start it until it finishes. It might be that it is generating an index of ppds or initializing foomatic, who knows.
Hope this is the case with your problem. |
