One thing I have finally accomplished with Linux that I couldn't
with OpenBSD is using my laptop's winmodem.  That's kinda neat :)

My parallel port scanner sort of works too.  It used to work better
with a 2.2 kernel.  The ppscsi drivers are no longer maintained 
(they authors are looking for a maintainer ...)  I can get sane
to find the scanner and control it, but I get kernel messages like

onscsi.0  data read overran buffer by 3457/12746 bytes

The image comes through, but has some really screwy sections.
I looked at onscsi.c, but where to make a change, if that's even
the right place, wasn't obvious at all, and since I don't know
how Linux does scsi, well I didn't look real hard.  It would
be nice to have it work properly though.

I also saw some work being done on Logitech QuickCam video cameras.
I haven't tried it yet, but I do have the hardware.
