Couldn't say much about kde4, but it should have kedit anyway. It |
| 47 |
would be a strange downgrade from 3.5, since I have to say, the kde |
| 48 |
printing manager I found much better than gnome-cups-manager. |
| 49 |
gnome-cups-manager never sees anything useful printers on networks |
| 50 |
when I tried it, but kde print manager (whatever it's called) could |
| 51 |
find lots of stuff. |
| 52 |
|
| 53 |
But if the two users are getting different behavior, that's not |
| 54 |
consistent with what I tried. |
| 55 |
|
| 56 |
I'm sure kedit was accessing something else, but in any case, it's a |
| 57 |
simple test case none-the-less. |
