I installed cups-driver-guntenprint and after restarting CUPS and
following the KDE Printer configuration assistant I get the same error
message shown before (related to gutenprint and permissions).

I believe that this error is caused by not loadind the lp module
because I can't see any /dev/lp* device created.

Any idea? Could this be a bug in some kernel module? or maybe a
hardware bug in my mainboard? What direction should I point to solve
this issue? :(

Thanks
