Cheap printer?
I have recently bought an EPSON Stylus color 480 for my home use. It was a surprise for me to note that this printer has no button to push and everything must be controlled from Windows (including changing or installing the ink cartridge!). So, I must return it and buy another printer. Wich one would you recommend to me? It must be cheap; I do not want to use color on my printings and it must work fine with linux. Thanks -- Hi!

Re: scsi support for ide to enable cdrecord-ing
1) Having 2 cdroms on the same IDE may generate problems (http://www.fokus.gmd.de/research/cc/glone/employees/joerg.schilling/private/cdrecord.html). 2) Remember to put append=hdx=ide-scsi in your lilo.conf 3) Change #define WAIT_CMD (10*HZ) to #define WAIT_CMD (1000*HZ) in the file /usr/src/linux/include/ide.h. Otherwise you will get timeout errors while fixating. 4) Disable scan all luns on the kernel. I get the same message from xcdroast so I do not use it.

Debian -vs- Win95?
We have bought a PC (AMD K7 Athlon with Hewlett-Packard CD recorder) to act as a server allowing people to copy their data on this server and record their CDs. We also want to attach our fax to this server and use it as a printer from other PCs in the net. Should I, Instal Windows 9x (easy to install and the software for the HP recorder will probably work under Windows) or Install Debian with samba, mgetty-fax and cdrecord. (I have never configured none of this applications.) ? If I install Debian everything should work fine, otherwise my colleagues will ask me to install Windows. -- .'/,-Y ~-.

Re: Writing corrupted files
nick wrote: Hi all, we are testing a machine (a dual PIII 500 with kernel 2.2.14pre15 SMP with Debian Frozen) we did just upgrade it with latest frozen packages and since then we have problems in opening old document newly saved. When we launch StarOffice it opens the previously saved docs but after a save, when we try to open again it comes up with an error. Error reading document file://path/to/file General Error General I/O error (this is a translation from Italian may be incorrect) I had similar problems. I generated StarOffice documents in my Win95 (at home) and I re-edited those documents in my linux (at work). I found it was a a reported problem (by Sun) that said that translating documents from one OS to another could produce this problem. They hadn't corrected it yet by that time. The solution was to avoid using GRAPHIC BULLETS in lists. I hope this can help you.
SMBCLIENT PROBLEM
I use smbmount-2.1.x to access Windows NT file systems from other computers in the net. Sometimes the connection gets lost and I get the following message when I try to list those directories: bash-2.02$ ls /net/XXX ls: /net/XXX: Input/output error bash-2.02$ If I try to mount again the net directories, smbmount-2.1.x says: Could not resolve mount point and the only solution I know is to restart my potato. After restart the connections are available again. How can I restore connections without restarting?
ProvidesLanguage
After upgrading to potato, I'm having problems compiling
latex documents with babel declaration.
The referred error is:
! Undefined control sequence.
l.20 \ProvidesLanguage
{spanish}
I know this is a known bug (because I have found
it in other mailing lists' archives), and I think babel package
has a patch to correct it.
What should I do to correct the problem?
If the solution is to install the newest version of babel,
where do I find the docstrip utility?
Thanks
