/sbin/init

I have tried many times "updating" and that didn't fix it. Also, I don't
have the bandwidth to download it , lousy 24.4 connection. Can anyone burn a
copy and mail (yes, snail-mail) it to me. I'd be happy to pay the postage
if anyone would. E-mail me off list.

I had no trouble with my Epson Stylus Colour 900 USB. True plug and play
and much better than WinBLOWS. I just used CUPS.

it sounds like 1 or more of your libraries are fubar.
The only thing I can recommend at this point (having had
a similar problem) is to reinstall using the update feature.

also, as 8.uh-0 is a dreaded "0" version, it might niot be a bad
idea to simply upgrade to 8.1.

One small problem I have encountered with 8.1 is that some printers
that worked in 8.0 will not in 8.1 (the printfilters and the lpr
are definitely different.

I may try with the 8.0 version and see whats up.

in the meantime, try an upgrade to 8.1. it worth the few hassles you
*might* get.
