Mandriva-2009.1 tries to install a package called Task-Printing-Server every time I power up my PSC-1401 All-In-One (multifunction) printer. This is very annoying & I want to stop these pop-up messages.

This printer uses the hplip package (PSC_1400.ppd for printing & hpaio for scanning) & everything works fine except for those annoying pop-up messages.

If anyone can explain how to stop these messages, please let me know. Thank you.

stop it from system settings --> notifications or panel(if possible)

I was able to stop Mandriva-2009.1 from displaying the annoying pop-up widows by removing the executable premission from
/usr/lib/notification-daemon. Now my HP PSC-1401 All-In-One Printer can be powered up after boot without those annoying
pop-up winows & I can still print & scan with it. I only hope this doesn't break somthing else.

This stops Mandriva from displaying the following pop-up windows:
1.) Task-Printing-server
2.) Installing Printer
3.) Installing Printer Failed

I was thinking of just removing the notification-daemon-0.4.0-3mdv2009.1.rpm package but it has too many dependancies &
the following package(s) also need to be removed:

- codeina-0.10.2-25.1mdv2009.1.noarch
- drakbackup-0.19.2-1mdv2009.1.noarch
- drakconf-12.10.1-2mdv2009.1.noarch

- system-config-printer-1.0.16-4mdv2009.1.noarch
- userdrake-1.9.1-1mdv2009.1.i586

I tried adding "/^task-printing-server/" to /etc/urpmi/skip.list but that doesn't stop Mandriva from trying to install a Task-Printing-Server
& displaying the above pop-up widows

I also tried Kde Control Panel but nothing there seemed to be related.

I am still open to suggestions because there has got to be a better way.
