I have to first make sure we are talking about the same Puppy version.

Your issue is with Fossapup64 9.5?

Installed how?
Live on a USB?
Frugal on a USB drive?

You have made a save file or folder and it is being used?

Anything you specifically did before this happened?

@galen :-

Hm. You haven't by any chance installed Chrome from the .deb file off their download page, have you? It's well known for changing ownership permissions on the pup_rw layer, which is where the CUPS stuff lives.

This effectively makes it "invisible" as far as Puppy's concerned, and it no longer "sees" it....

Just a thought, like.

Mike.

No chrome

Installed to USB save file fat32 stick, ext savefilr

Cups seems to be installed
But no PPD s
No listening ports
I might purge cups

[galen]

Initd s cupsd will start and stop
But I get internal server error when 127.0.0.1:631
Any task edit add etc

/etc/cups is root:lp ownership -R

Will try debug mode
