Mandrake 9.2 and QTR

2004-04-29 by Roger L Sopher

Hi Ramin,

Just for the fun of it I downloaded mandrake 9.2 and installed it. It seems
to me that the problem I have had with Mandrake all along as a distro for
QTR hasn't been solved. That is, it doesn't have cups-config. In going
through the rpms there is no cups-devel package. The net result is that the
install of QTR doesn't work correctly. Am I missing something? I certainly
am not very familiar with Mandrake and could easily have overlooked
something.

Roger

    I would suggest you to try Mandrake. It has an improved rpm
  software installer that checks the dependencies automaticly.
  It is called urpmi. Mandrake has a free download version as well
  though i don´t know if it contains the kernel sources, however i
  believe you can find it as well since if i understand correctly, all
  linux distros are obliged to provide the sources for free according
  to GNU public licence.
    On version 9.2, i have successfully installed QuadTOneRIP, but
  since i haven´t still purchased the printer(!), i can not say for
  sure that every thing will work as it should. Let´s just hope.
    Regards, Ramin
