Re: Sharing Linux printer with Mac
On Sat Jan 21, 2006 01:36AM, Chinook wrote: P4 with Debian Etch (testing), kernel 2.6.12-1-686, Gnome desktop and USB attached printer and scanner PMac G5 running OS X Tiger (10.4.4) .. I've got my AppleTalk/zeroconf LAN setup working for file sharing - with netatalk and task-howl on the Linux box. When I had my printer connected to my Mac I could print to it from the Linux box with just CUPS whether the Mac AppleTalk connection with the Linux box was active or not. Then I decided I wanted more desk space around my Mac and moved the printer to my Linux box. Now I can print from my Linux box, but I can't seem to figure out how to print to it from my Mac :-P For once I'm finding the printer setup on my Mac the more difficult :-( I've tried it outside the AppleTalk connection by simply supplying an address of 192.168.2.69:631 and though the printer definition is accepted, actual printing says the printer is busy. I've also tried it with the AppleTalk connection up, again supplying the same address, with the same results. I've also tried variations of addresses without success. I'm sure I'm tripping over the obvious but what??? Is there a way to specify the Linux printer from my Mac outside AppleTalk? Or if I need to through AppleTalk, do I need to further edit my Linux netatalk setup - maybe the papd.conf??? If I do need to (somehow) use the Linux printer with AppleTalk, there is another lesser question. How do I ensure that the howl tools (mDNSResponder for advertising) start at login like afpd and atalkd. Following is the mDNSBrowse info if it's any help. I'm keeping notes on the detail steps in order to share the setup with anyone else they might help, so if you want to see the detail steps I've taken so far I can send along the text file or put it up on my dotMac account for download.

Image thumbnailer
I have a lot of photos (jpeg's) that I would like to be able to batch thumbnail possibly rename. Any suggestions for a program to 'easily' do this? I will explore all the functionality of Gimp at some point, but wanted to know of alternatives. Thanks. -Trey -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Re: Mounting USB devices
Thanks for the assistance...two follow-up questions: 1. Are these assignments going to change each time I shut down and then start up my machine (as far as how they are detected)? I asked because I am running a rather old machine that I leave on during the day, but then shut down at night. 2. How do I give myself access to my devices (read write) as a normal user? I had to su from the terminal to execute teh sg_map command because I had no access as a normal user. This would be for all devices like my CD drives, Zip drive, CF reader, etc. Again, thanks for all your help. -Trey Tom Hoover wrote: On Fri, Jan 10, 2003 at 11:05:18PM -0500, Trey Sizemore wrote: How can I tell how my USB devices are indentified in Linux?

Re: Mounting USB devices
This is the output of my /etc/fstab file. When booting, I noticed that the screen said I had an error on line 15 (which is the line I just added for the camera). Can you see what might be wrong?

Perhaps grip can be used to just rip the music although it is intended for converting/compressing them to mp3. Why do you want to do this, just to be able to play them without having the cd inserted or to further process the songs?

staroffice 6 install
I downloaded the staroffice .bin file and have tried to install it on my system.

I would appreciate instruction on installing Evolution 1.2.1 from people who have done this successfully. I have attempted to install via apt-get from unstable, but have run into several dependency problems with seemingly mutually exclusive files (namely libgtkhtml1.1 et.al.). Additionally, it would be interesting to know if spell-check is working for you. I had not gotten this to work the last time I somewhat successfully installed Evolution.

MS Intellimouse Explorer
I liked the idea of Knoppix and downloaded it to try. I noticed that my Intellimouse Explorer (USB/optical) does not work however. Side to side motion moves the mouse up and down (up and down does nothing) and clicking the mouse buttons moves the cursor to the right incrementally. The mouse works fine in Red Hat and Libranet, but I have the same mouse issue in Mandrake 9.0. I have posted to both forums over the past weeks with no results (other than switch to a PS/2 mouse) and searched many FAQs.
