And the hat's off to Sven Arvidsson for this really, truly, wonderful, no hassle find. Awesome. I just printed the test page in less than 5 minutes. When you consider I spent, between two days, about 8 hours; this is truly wonderful. I'm of two minds; whether I should have asked earlier, save some time. Or, not come quickly with all questions without first trying to solve stuff. I suppose the answer is a sensible balance. But thanks, Sven, thanks a whole lot. At this point, I think I'm almost done making this switch. And I thank you very much, Mr. Arvidsson. And as well to all those who pitched in. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
