Re: can't print from acroread
Not sure if this will help, but... I have the same symptom.
I tried to print from acroread and nothing happened. I ended up
shutting down after that.
The next time I booted the system I discovered that I was unable to
print from any application, and my cpu was pinned. I noticed that the
process sucking most of the cpu was "gs". After killing gs the cpu went
to normal and printing resumed.
Hope that's a hint.
Cheers,
Steve
