Me three! :)
I had been running Fedora Core 2 on my workstation. I had been happy
with it but in the past couple of weeks they released a new 2.6.8 based
kernel that completely broke my ability to burn CDs. that one was easily
fixed by switching back to the previous kernel, but was a little
annoying to me. this past week after I downloaded some updates CUPS
broke. I mean it broke it bad. I could completely remove all of my
config files and then remove the cups rpm and then reinstall it and it
would work up until I tried to set up 2 printers on it that I use at
work, if I just removed all of the cups config files and then restarted
cups it would hang up again as soon as I tried to configure the printer
drivers again. It would always hang up and stop working after I
installed the second printer's drivers, regardless of what I did. I
never had any problems with CUPS before this. Needless to say I was
tired of the screw-ups from FC2 so I pulled out my WBEL 3.0 Respin 1 CDs
and I proceeded to wipe and reload my workstation with it. It works
great as a Workstation.
