Description Brad Laue (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-03-07 11:21:44 UTC
When the printer control panel is opened, it closes immediately with no error message in .xsession-errors. Also, when any KDE program tries to print, or any program using kprinter attempts to print, either the KDE program or kprinter itself inexplicably closes with no error.

Haven't tried kdelibs post-qt-3.3-printfix patch. Will try that now.
