i am trying to install a new printer and when
i go the the printer agent in yast it starts going through it's check list
and then disapears every time at the same spot.

i ran it in ther terminal and this is what i get:
Command: /sbin/yast2 printer &
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::bad_alloc'
what(): St9bad_alloc
/sbin/yast2: line 207: 17351 Aborted $ybindir/y2base
$module "$@" qt -geometry "$Y2_GEOMETRY" $Y2QT_ARGS

how can i fix this?

thanks,
mike
