Description Atri Bhattacharya 2008-11-17 05:40:27 UTC
At present the Yast Printer module shows a list of matching drivers when adding a new printer from the connection wizard with the list sorted in alphabetical order. It would be much better to show the recommended drivers first in this list.
Comment 1 Johannes Meixner 2008-11-21 14:12:34 UTC
It does prioritise recommended drivers
if all drivers seem to belong to the same model.

It is only sorted in alphabetical order
it the list of drivers seems to be for various models.

See the "Sort the driver_items list" section
in the DriverItems function in
/usr/share/YaST2/modules/Printer.ycp
