Another addiction:
I tried moving rc.cups at the very bottom of the boot sequence, putting it into rc.4 before loading KDM, but it continues hanging the boot.
I also tried putting it in the .bash_profile file of a user (via sudo) , but when the user log in the system freezes.
BUT if the user waits some minutes after the boot before logging then there's no hanging
I tried "debugging" the loading of cups by hand.
'rc.cups start' freezes, but launching top in another console I see 2 processes named cupsd and one process named rc.cups
these 3 process use 0% cpu
if a do nmap localhost I don't see the port 631 opened.
Also launching /usr/sbin/cupsd by hand hangs.
If I wait some minute before launching rc.cups it starts properly withut problems.
It seem there's something which doesn't allow cups to open the port, so it freezes, and after some time this 'lock' goes out permitting cups to open the port ..
Any idea?
