"Kernel Bug Diagnostic Information Sent" when I try to print - users - Fedora mailing-lists

18 Nov 2008


      Fedora 9. I have an hp1320 Postscript printer hooked up to a lowly 
parallel port. When I go to print something, a message appears on my 
screen too fast to fully read (See subject line) and then fades away. Then 
I get a lot of messages in syslog. The CPU stays pegged at 100% until I 
lprm the job.
I took a sample to show below. It seems that a number of people have had 
the same problem but I have not seen any solution (at least in English). 
When I just tried to print the CUPS test page, I got the same error but 
the page did successfully print.
I see no package that needs to be updated. Can someone help? Please? :-(
