Debian testing, alsa and cups
Hello.
Been thru the (RT)FM and maybe missed it but didn't find it.
Upgraded stable to testing, and it worked with much difficulty
and repeated
'aptitude dist-upgrade' and ended up with two mildly annoying
situations
with ALSA and CUPS.
ALSA won't provide sound after a reboot or re-logon unless I run
the
/etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart script. Works good after that.
Using KDE3.5
and kernel 2.6.18. Works OK with GNOME logon so it seems it's a
KDE thing. Could just run the command somewhere but I'd like to
find
the problem, eventually.
CUPS also won't print after a logon or restart. I found this
problem but I'm
at a loss to fix it permanently. Seems the /dev/usb/lp0 device
is assigned
the user:group of root:lp instead of what CUPS likes, lp:sys.
I can script
this change too but same as above, I'd like to find the glitch
and do it
right. Does CUPS need to assign different permissions, or does
the hotplug/udev
system need to assign a different user:group? And where to do this?
Thanks for the assistance?
