I'm trying to add a networked laser printer to Kubuntu Intrepid. When I get to the point where it asks to point to the PPD file, the "three dots" button does nothing. I expect clicking on that button should open a navigation dialogue where I can point to the file.

When I enter the path manually, I noticed the error below in the terminal. It looks like system-config-print-kde is not able to retrieve the information I have entered.

Thoughts?
