Trying to get X running (correctly) on a thinkpad iSeries 1300. This unit has
a silicon motion LynxEM+ video chip and a 800x600 svga display.
I can get X running, but, it comes up only in 640x480. Additionally the
display looks like it is displaying in a 1024x768 mode as all of the fonts,
I am having problems getting X set up properly on a laptop. Should I post
the question here or on the mobile list?

I cannot print in 4.7-stable...I do not think the problem is the driver but
with how the kernel deals the parallel port. Which is odd, since it
recognizes and configures it properly.
Why I say this, is because I cannot even send

to the printer, as nothing happens.
I want to use 5.3 as a desktop system, but I am having some problems with
device permissions. Since devfs re-creates devices on boot I have to redo

I had posted earlier that I couldnt pull down cd info from the cddb server
when playing music cd's. I did a lot more googling and found that:
1) gnome-cd uses a program called cddbslave2 to fetch info from the cddb
