1. Printing output corrupted using kernel 2.4.19.
2. Print output from three Linux servers corrupted. These servers are
running Samba 2.2.5, and are Slackware 8.0 or 8.1 systems. Print output
from Windows platforms, especially .pdf files, gets corrupted. Half
pages are printed. Pages are repeated, etc. Drop back to the 2.4.18
kernel, and the problem goes away. Kernel on all systems compiled
locally, e.g. on each system. Print daemon is from the LPRng package.
Printers include TCP/IP printers (LPRng redirect using printcap) and
those attached via parallel ports. Windows systems include XP, 2000,
and 98. Regardless of the OS, the printer output is corrupted w/ 2.4.19
kernel, but works fine when kernel 2.4.18 is run.
