Printing problem (cups) and dsl (pppoeconf) pb on Breezy

Hi,
Since i upgraded on Breezy, I haven't been able to
print (everything was fine in Hoary).  
All programs either answer that they can't get to cups
or freeze like the badger.
I removed/reinstalled all priting packages. I've got
cups and foomatic. I also tried killing cups and
restarting it. Printer is a Samsung ML1250.
The entry "Printing" in System/Administration doesn't
work either.

Also, I've been unable to get dsl connection (set up
using pppoeconf) to start at boot time; even pon
dsl-provider doesn't work, I need to lauch pppoeconf
and redo the configuration each time I want to
connect. Modem is an Ethernet one.

ifconfig send this (dunno if relevant, but the 2 pb
could be linked):

Thanks for the help. I really need to print for my
work and can't at the moment.
Hope somebody can help or tell me how to configure the
printers on Ubuntu (or how debian handles it if it can help)
