Printing oddities with WP

[Denis Roy]

Hay all,

For some strange reason, when I occasionally try to print a document
with WP2K, my document won't print and here's what comes up at the
console:

[toofast@dont toofast]$ wordperfect
err:winspool:WINSPOOL_GetStringFromRegA Got ret = 2
err:winspool:WINSPOOL_GetStringFromRegA Got ret = 2
err:module:BUILTIN32_LoadLibraryExA Attempt to instantiate built-in dll
'SHELL32' twice in the same address-space. Expect trouble!
err:module:BUILTIN32_LoadLibraryExA Attempt to instantiate built-in dll
'COMCTL32' twice in the same address-space. Expect trouble!
err:module:BUILTIN32_LoadLibraryExA Attempt to instantiate built-in dll
'COMDLG32' twice in the same address-space. Expect trouble!
err:shell:Shell32LibMain shell32.dll instantiated twice in one address
space!
err:commdlg:COMDLG32_DllEntryPoint comdlg32.dll instantiated twice in
one address space!

Then I must manually killall -9 wine. To print the document, I must
print a document I _know_ will print, then I can print the "crashing"
one. What a pain! This happens quite often! Any ideas?

I think that it always says this. (above 2 lines).

Yes, these error messages look familiar.

Try the script "closeWPO2000" to clear the crash.

You might try upgrading libc. I upgraded my Red Hat system to glibc-2.2
and it doesn't seem to crash as often.
