DigiKam Create calendar tool

I'm currently trying to create a calendar using Digikam's calendar tool, but
it seems to be taking ages to process. I used to use 0.93 in Kubuntu 8.04 and
that was fairly fast, but now I'm using 0.10.0 in Kubuntu 9.04 and 1.0.0 in
Kubuntu 9.10 and both versions seem to be taking ages to process the pages.

Actually, just got the first month printed out and the only the first 20mm of
the picture is showing.

0.9.0 is available for Ubuntu 9.10 in karmic-backports repository, just in
case if you want to try with newer version.

I've got 0.9.0 running on a laptop and I just tried printing to a pdf which is
going as slow as 0.7.0 is.

I started printing a 12 month calendar at 16.30 and now at 20.00 I'm at 41% :(

Hi Mark,
I've just tried print calendar to PDF file and it takes about 30
secs to generate file with 12 pages (12 months, about 100 MB size).
I've got digiKam 1.0rc installed and newest kipi plugins.

So, it seems there is something wrong with your installation. Regards,

I've now tried on 3 computers with Kubuntu 9.04, Digikam 1.0.0 beta 5 and
Kipiplugins 0.7.0 and all 3 are going at the same speed :(

Is there anything else I can check?

I've now got it working by printing to a ps file and then printing that, but
looks like something else may be wrong as I keep getting Printer
'Photosmart_C5100' may not be connected even though it is!
