A network mystery

2003-09-14 Thread Robert Jones
Y'all, this one is about to drive me to distraction. Without going into a long chronology, I recent got DSL and have been reconfiguring. I finally got around to pulling my 3c905tx NIC and installing an Intel dual-port card as a stepping stone to restoring order. I'm using a Linksys router

I decided to do a fresh install of 7.3 rather than upgrade 7.2 -- fresh, as on a brand new drive. Of course, I had to jumper out over half of the new drive's 80 gigs for my 3 year old machine to boot. I installed 7.3 on it, then pulled the drive and went back to 7.2 while I ponder and ask and

Has anyone 'broken the code' on the StarOffice CD that comes with RH7.2? I used to think I was pretty fair at reading between the lines but that has to be the most terrible documentation I've seen! The *very last* thing I want to do is blunder into a single-user installation and wind up

I just bought an Epson Stylus C80 to use with RH 6.0 realizing that I probably wasn't going to realize anything close to the resolution the printer is capable of without without installing a wad of upgrades. Things could be going better. This will buy me a BW printout using the printtool option

Print Driver Ghostscript question

I have finally decided to replace my 1987 dot matrix printer with something a little more modern. After some looking, it appears that the HP940c would probably represent a decent tradeoff 'tween budget and needs/wants. But before I rush out and buy any printer, I want to know it's gonna work on

I guess that what I'd like to know are 1) Any bad reports on the HP940c? and 2) Am I in for any nasty surprises if I install ghostscript 6.53 on top of 5.10-7 that came with RH 6.0? You should browse http://www.linuxprinting.org. Good info. - -d - -- David Talkington Very
