Re: help with printing, please...
Just type "command > lpr". Replace command with the command you want print
the output of. This will send the output to lpr (printer). You can also
look at .xsession-errors (in home dir) and xdm-errors in the /var/log dir,
depending on what you are doing and at what point you get the errors.
Just play with combo's of the above and you will get all the errors. Also
read the man page on the command and see if you can increase debugging
with an arg (-d or --debug normally).
