&gt; 
&gt; Long story made short:
&gt;   Upgraded RH9 to FC3.
&gt;   No application could find a printer.
&gt;   After much banging my head against a wall and consulting
&gt;   with my son I found my way to /etc/alternatives and the
&gt;   command of the same name.
&gt;   Read the man page -- three times, carefully. My eyes
&gt;   glazed over each time.
&gt;   My problem was that sym links were NOT pointing to the
&gt;   proper cups file but to the (outdated) Lprng file.
&gt; 
&gt;   Finally got things sorted out, but am left with a plea:
&gt; 
&gt;   Would someone -- anyone -- be willing to give a 5-10 minute
&gt;   explanation of &lt;alternatives&gt;  _with_ examples at an ALE
&gt;   Central meeting?

And if they are, would they be willing to do it up front and do it so
everyone can hear?

Michael
