Hello: I just wanted to let the developers know that I have trouble printing with the 3.2-BETA kernel using the GENERIC configuration file. I print Postscript to my HP LJ4L using Ghostscript. Without the "fix" described below, the printing turns to crap about 3cm down the page. Printing just plain text also runs into trouble, but less dramatically. I've been having this trouble since 3.1-R (I never tried 3.0). The problem goes away by changing the device ppc0 at isa? port? flags 0x40 net irq 7 line to device ppc0 at isa? port? flags 0x40 tty irq 7 I don't know what the "tty" or "net" parts do. This change was discussed in -questions a bit after 3.1-RELEASE was released. I just wanted to let you folks know just in case you want to include the change in the 3.2-RELEASE. - Peter Schwenk - schwenk@voicenet.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
