I have been using knoppix 3.6 for several months now and it has been working well until today. I tried to setup CUPS to work with a HP laserjet 3, but it can't start CUPS. It has always worked from the LiveCD, but this time it won't.
The error message is as follows:
Unable to retrieve the printer list. Error message received from manager:
Connection to CUPS server failed. Check that the CUPS server is correctly installed and running. Error: connection refused.
Can somebody help me figure this out
Where does knoppix look for which packages to start on bootup? This would help me look at the start script and see if cups is being started in the boot script. It should be, though, because it worked for 3 months without a hitch (no problem whatsoever).
Note, the new CD I made verified with K3b, so the image of the CD verified with the ISO image, which verified with md5sum. So everything seems to check out and the CD is not corrupt.
