No problem here on i686, it hink it's a local problem.

Is cupsd running? => ps ax | grep cups
Is it listening? => netstat -ln | grep 631

If running and listening, try getting index page with wget:
wget http://localhost:631
If wget fails try it with higher log and debug levels.

Forgotten: look at /var/log/cups access_log and error_log

Never mind, it's because I set my hostname wrong. D'oh.
