Thanks for the help, Steffen. It installed ok. Unfortunately it still doesn't work properly. The programmer wasn't aware of any problem until I contacted him, but he says he will talk to Mandrake about it. Meanwhile, I'll get back to him with feedback on which bits are improved with this new driver and which bits still don't work at all. The good news, though, is that I can expect to get a working driver after a little patience. Anne
