Bug Description
I upgraded from hardy (where everything worked well) to Intrepid. However our printer started to lock constantly. I then decided to run a fresh install of intrepid. Now I cannot select the printer driver on the install printer wizard. My other machines still crash the printer maybe this is related?
Everything is at the latest version.
Linux tomato 2.6.27-8-generic #1 SMP Thu Nov 6 17:33:54 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux

There is at least a problem in system- config- printer, as system- config- printer crashes. In addition it is possible that your printer got crashed by another machine and so it is not possible to communicate with it.
The system- config- printer crash seems to have to do with internationaliz ation. Try
LC_ALL=C system- config- printer
on the command line to see whether then no crash happens.
