Yup, this is indeed a nice little hassle-free printer for use with
Linux; I've been recommending it for some time. It's also available
in an auction scheme at egghead.com for $79, although you pay for
shipping.
Note that you will need to add memory for it to be useful; it takes a
single 72 pin FPM or EDO SIMM. 16MB is sufficient, or you can add 32
or 64 if you've got that. This is 486-era memory, so you should be
able to find some on an old computer some somewhere.
You can find a little more information from this printers' database
entry at the Printing HOWTO home page; URL below.

I have a very stupid problem to install Corel Linux. It doesn't accept
my graphic card inside my portable. Have anybody a tip how I can make it
working.
It is a LCD screen with a Trident display adapter. That's all I know
about it.
I hope anybody can help.

Linux always sees the real drive geometry - unless you are dual
booting with an inferior OS (in this respect anyway), the only need
for the BIOS setting is to get LILO to boot.
I found that the easiest way to do this is to set the BIOS to any
mode (but stick to it), and create a small partition at the beginning
of the drive to mount into /boot, where I keep the kernel (the more
cylinders in the BIOS, the smaller the partition, 15M on my machine).
This way, LILO can find it, and then Linux doesn't need the BIOS
geometries any more.
Robie.

Nope. /dev/mouse is just a link to the correct device file, nothing
more. What it is actually pointing to depends from your local setup
(and skills).

The same problem with my machine: ASUS P3B-F mother board, HP2100
printer working on NT but not under linux... I think that the parallel
port doesn't work well on this board. I've compiled a new kernel with
all parallel options turned on, I've tried all configs for parallel port
(Normal, EPP, ECP, EPP+ECP) but nothing. Another afternoon loosed. Any
help or hint is welcomed.

It may be heresy to mention it but Microsoft makes an optical mouse
without rollers that works very well. It has a scroll wheel and can be
set up as a three button mouse.

I have a user who is using IDE on both his motherboard and on a PCI card. The
docs seem to indicate that the IDE drive automatically probes PCI IDE cards
for disks. Linux sees the motherboard IDEs but does not seem to probe the PCI
card. Is there any sort of boot parameter voodoo I can use to encourage the
drive to probe?

Well... not really loosed afternoon;
(First) Solution in my case:
# rmmod lp
# rmmod parport_probe
# modprobe parport_pc
# printtool
Now I have a parallel port, I used printtool after that. for my hp2100 I
used HPlj3/4/5 without Postscript support driver.
but how can I use its 1200dpi support???? It's another question...
hope that works also for you,

Hi, Timo.
Your machine is expecting a couple of logic levels on the "printer ready" and
"on line" inputs. There are five lines that act as direct inputs to the port.
One serves as an interrupt, the others are direct bits that can be read through
simple software. Your printer driver expects to see some of those lines at
specific levels, but I am not sure without looking them up what to set them
to. Get the pinout and look it over. I'll get mine in case you can't find
one.
Cheers!

Hi,
It seems that my problems have nothing to due with the Linux
kernel, only with the poor quality of the ABIT BP6 motherboard.
I strongly discourage the use of BP6 motherboards for "heavy" use
like using Adaptec SCSI hosts.
I moved my Adaptec AHA-2940UA and AHA-2940-U2W hosts around,
changing PCI slots. I found that:
- One slot won't work at all with either Adaptec host (SCSI
devices attached to the host are not found while the SCSI BIOS
scans the SCSI bus).
- Another slot seems to make it, but SMP-kernels hang later on
with this message:
scsi : aborting command due to timeout : pid 16, scsi1,
channel 0, id 0, lun 0 Test Unit Ready 00 00 00 00 00
- Probably by mere miracle, I've found two PCI slots that work
with my Adaptec hosts and SMP-kernel - for now. I intend to
return the motherboard anyway and buy some other brand: I fear
all this could well cause problems later on - mysterious timeouts
and so on...
Note that:
- The Adaptec SCSI hosts work fine with other motherboards.
- This is the second BP6 motherboard I test. The first one was
even worse. I couldn't find a working pair of PCI slots for
my Adaptec hosts. Note that I wasn't able to test all
combinations. I had to return the motherboard because it died
while I was moving the SCSI hosts around. I was wearing a wrist
strap and operating with power off / computer case unplugged
in case you were wondering.
- The overall quality seems very poor. For example the BIOS has
this ridiculous bug that it won't display the bottom pixels of
a letter while booting, e.g. it will display:
*
**
*
*
*
*
*
* *
* *
instead of:
*
