Hi folks,
I've run into an application (the Eclipse SDK that I've been asked to install
by teaching faculty) that requires Xprint printing and am wondering
if we can enable this on Athena.
There's an extensive FAQ at
http://puck.informatik.med.uni-giessen.de/people/gisburn/work/xprint/Xprint_FAQ.txt
and from there a pointer to an Xprint site at http://xprint.mozdev.org.
From information at those sites, it looks like we have the major
components already installed on Solaris (/usr/openwin/bin/Xprt and
/usr/openwin/lib/libXp.so), and the second site has a package of
Solaris scripts that can help get it running.
If someone could look into this and tell me if there's a chance that
this could be installed anytime soon that would be great.
Thanks,
Alex
