@ Jürgen

ouch, sorry, we are very short on triagers and miss things :(

And now it's five months later, and the problem may have gotten solved through an update, anyway.

Did it get solved?

In case the bug is still there, I'll put our printing magician in the cc of this report.

Here I am.

Sorry for long delay. Errors are not resolved and continue.

Last tested with kernels 2.6.38.8-desktop-10.mga and 3.1.6-desktop-nrj.69mib. Entire distribution is actually patched.

Thank you for your efforts.

with regards,

Juergen.

What do you mean by that? Also you can't expect us to do some support for a 3rd party kernel, or why do you mention an MIB kernel here? If you installed many 3rd party packages, then please complain to the 3rd party packages for bugfixes, we can only support official mageia packages.

Hallo Florian,

sorry for your inconvenience.

I wanted to say, that I'm regularly/daily check for patches and deploy them. 
Because I'm an long time consumer of Mandriva, I also tried to resolve my 
printing and mousing problems with actual kernels borrowed by siblings of MIB. 
But MIB kernels inserted in Mageia1 and a separate complete installation of 
MDV 2011 on this mainboard are showing the same blocking behavior in case of 
output to parallel device. For completeness of information I'll send you the 
list of installed MIB packages. You shouldn't fix them.

[root@Max ~]# rpm -qa|grep mib
kernel-nrj-desktop-devel-latest-3.1.6-nrj.69mib2010.2
dkms-fglrx-8.881-69.1mib2010.2
fglrx-control-center-8.881-69.1mib2010.2
kernel-nrj-desktop-devel-3.1.6-nrj.69mib-1-1mib2010.2
kernel-firmware-20110314-69mib2010.2
x11-driver-video-fglrx-8.881-69.1mib2010.2
kernel-firmware-extra-20110517-69mib2010.2
kernel-nrj-desktop-3.1.6-nrj.69mib-1-1mib2010.2
kernel-nrj-desktop-latest-3.1.6-nrj.69mib2010.2

If there is anything to do for Your support, I'm glad to hear of it.

Thanks,

Juergen

@ tmb

assigning to you. The last Mageia kernel the reporter tried with is the actual one in Mageia 1

@ Jürgen

If this bug is still valid, is it valid for Mageia 2, too?

Hi Marja,

thank you for remembering this open tasks.

In this case, there are actually no good news. Again testet with MGA2 (release kernel 3.3.6-2, all updates applied). The system freezes immediately.

Tested on console with "cat /etc/hosts > /dev/lp0". The printer initialized (positioned paper) and stopped before printing first char.

Is there any advice to produce an dump or core file?

Good evening,

with regards, Jürgen

@ the reporter and persons in the cc of this bug:

If you have any new information that wasn't given before (like this bug being valid for another version of Mageia, too, or it being solved) please tell us.

This message is a reminder that Mageia 2 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately one month from now Mageia will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Mageia 2. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX (EOL) if it remains open with a Mageia 'version' of '2'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Mageia version prior to Mageia 2's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Mageia 2 is end of life.  If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Mageia, you are encouraged to click on "Version" and change it against that version of Mageia.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Mageia release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.

bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Mageia
please feel free to click on "Version" change it against that version of Mageia
and reopen this bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
