well, i wasn't using gs-aladdin, but when i was catting the file to the
device, it still wasn't receiving data sometimes. it ended up being a
defective printer cable....one that i've been using for 4 years. I
should have thought of trying this earlier. Thank you for the
suggestion.
i guess it just goes to show how solid unstable debian packages are.
sorry for all the trouble ( my turn to say sorry :-)
sorry,
ajit
