Here's the lsmod output:
	Module                  Size  Used by
	vmmon                  18436   0  (unused)
	rtc                     5272   0  (autoclean)


Here is the recent /var/log/lpr.log output (just after a failed print job):
	Jan  6 19:45:11 lacall-hat lpd[230]: restarted
	Jan  8 07:01:06 lacall-hat lpd[200]: restarted
	Jan  9 18:16:56 lacall-hat lpd[230]: restarted

Here is /etc/printcap:
# /etc/printcap: printer capability database. See printcap(5).
# You can use the filter entries df, tf, cf, gf etc. for
# your own filters. See /etc/filter.ps, /etc/filter.pcl and
# the printcap(5) manual page for further details.

        :lp=/dev/lp0:\

        :af=/var/log/lp-acct:\

Note that I can't even cat filename > /dev/lp0. Absolutely nothing 
happens that I can see. Also, when I Print from Gimp (I have a CUPS and 
gimp-print setup), then check "lpstat", I briefly see something in the 
queue, then it disappears without any action to the printer. And this 
was all working a month ago before I started messing with kernels; still 
stumped; I thought I'd changed everything back to how it was!

Thanks!
