Hi,
I'm also running Mandrake 7 - its beautiful - though only with a
Bj200. Because I had used it successfully under Man 6.1, I
installed Apsfilter, which is freely available on the net, and it
worked like a dream.
If you don't get any clever solutions to this - I'm very much a
newbie eavesdropping on this list! - it might be worth a try.
