Free swag == good. Even without all the IPOs, these companies have large marketing budgets, maybe they'll send us some stuff (though my favorite open source projects don't have any marketing budget, oh well). And I think the CSO (where Kronos lives) needs a poster or two. I'm thinking of doing

I would recommend installing Cups. Its the more modern of the print systems and its fairly easy to use. You should be able to configure it using the web interface or KDE (though I would stick to former.) The drivers all come with Cups. Christopher Gordon wrote: I tried to install my printer on

I guess my first suggestion is to see if someone is having a similar problem at forums.gentoo.org, and if you can't find someone, post your message there. So many people read those forums, occasionally you can get some good help. Try reemerging python to fix your emerge issues. Um, wait.
