I now realised that my CUPS printers are not available from File - Print., only 'Postcript/default' is available. Cupsd is available and managed fine on localhost:631. I can print via lpr -Pprintername, openoffice does show the cups printers in its dropdown. I am not sure how to proceed. Is there an option to enable cups support in linux-firefox? Am I supposed to rebuild linux-firefox from source (but ... how from freebsd? :-? ) The system is: $ uname -a FreeBSD ayiin.xxxx.com 6.1-STABLE FreeBSD 6.1-STABLE #2: Sat Jul 15 12:29:06 EST 2006 root@ayiin.xxx.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/AYIIN i386 linux-firefox itself tells me this about it: Generated: Thu Jul 20 2006 10:44:43 GMT+1000 (EST) User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.0.4) Gecko/20060508 FreeBSD/i386 Firefox/1.5.0.4 Build ID: 2006050817 $ pkg_info | grep -i cups cups-1.2.0 The Common UNIX Printing System: Metaport to install comple cups-base-1.2.0_2 The Common UNIX Printing System cups-pdf-2.4.1_1 A virtual printer for CUPS to produce PDF files cups-pstoraster-8.15 Postscript interpreter for CUPS printing to non-PS printers cups-samba-5.0.r3 The Common UNIX Printing System: MS Windows client drivers libgnomecups-0.2.2_1,1 Support library for gnome cups admistration $ pkg_info | grep firefox firefox-remote-20040803 Wrapper scripts for firefox web browser linux-firefox-1.5.0.4 Web browser based on the browser portion of Mozilla $ pkg_info | grep linux linux-XFree86-libs-4.3.99.902_7 XFree86 libraries, Linux binary linux-atk-1.9.1 Accessibility Toolkit, Linux/i386 binary linux-expat-1.95.8 Linux/i386 binary port of Expat XML-parsing library linux-firefox-1.5.0.4 Web browser based on the browser portion of Mozilla linux-flashplugin-7.0r63 The official Macromedia Flash Player for Linux Mozilla and linux-fontconfig-2.2.3_5 Linux/i386 binary of Fontconfig linux-glib2-2.6.6 Version 2.X Linux/i386 binary port of GLib linux-gtk2-2.6.10 GTK+ library, version 2.X, Linux binary linux-hicolor-icon-theme-0.5 A high-color icon theme shell from the FreeDesktop project linux-jpeg-6b.34 RPM of the JPEG lib linux-pango-1.8.1 Linux pango binary linux-png-1.2.8_2 RPM of the PNG lib linux-realplayer-10.0.7.785.20060201 Linux RealPlayer 10 from RealNetworks linux-tiff-3.7.1 TIFF library, Linux/i386 binary linux-xorg-libs-6.8.2_5 Xorg libraries, linux binaries linux_base-fc-4_6 Base set of packages needed in Linux mode (for i386/amd64) linux_dri-6.5 Binary Linux DRI libraries for 3D hardware acceleration of linuxpluginwrapper-20051113_4 A wrapper allowing use of linux-plugins with native applica Thanks for any help!!
