Subject: [suse-slstd-e] No printing via lprng with Dosemu 1.3.1

Hi list,

I have problems while using lprng with dosemu 1.3.1.
In my printcap I have added the following lines:

pr-fra19|remote printer on pr-fra19:\
        :sd=/var/spool/lpd/pr-fra19:\
        :rm=pr-fra19:\
        :rp=text:\
        :bk:sh:mx#0:

The dosemu.conf looks like:

$_printer = "pr-fra19"
$_printer_command = "lpr"

But when I try to print from a application running underdosemu, nothing happens.
So I have started the dosemu with a logfile (dosemu.bin +D-a+w+p -o /tmp/dos.log) and found following lines:

LPT: initializing printer <<NODEV>>
LPT: initializing printer <<NODEV>>
LPT: initializing printer <<NODEV>>
LPT: print to non-defined printer LPT3
LPT: print to non-defined printer LPT2
LPT: init printer 0

The printer is plugged on a printbox, that is connected via ethernet with the LAN
A testprint from linux (lpr -Ppr-fra19 /etc/xxx) works fine.

Hope someone can help me to fix this problem. A running dosemu (1.1.3-5) works fine under SuSE 7.2 / 2.4.16. But
now we have to use SLES9 from SuSE with Kernel 2.6.5-XXX.
