[Bug 9489] Re: Wrong default paper size

[Bruno Santos]

It seems cups isn't accepting configuration changes, and gnome-cups-manager ignores ~/.cups/lpoptions.

If that file is coppied to /etc/cups the changes are seen and applied. It must be something related to running things with suid. If gnome-cups-manager is run with sudo, the changes get applied too.

Should this message have something about things don't work: CUPS-Add-Modify-Printer: Unauthorized? It shows in cups' logs.

This and samba issues should be critical bugs, "oh lets print... hmmm it doesn't work... damn Linux!" ;-P
