Trident 9750/graphics problem

1999-03-12 Thread Mono
I just recently gave up on a huge fight to configure my Monster Fusion with kernel 2.2.1, having failed to find anything coming remotely close to working with it, and therefore had to fall back on my old trident 9750. Does the SVGA server for Xfree86 support this? I'm aiming for just functionality

Printing problems

1999-03-26 Thread Mono
I wrote awhile back about some problems with my epson. Turned out, like someone suggested, that I hadn't compiled parallel printing support into the kernel, stupid me :). Anyway, I'm stumped again. According to /proc/parport/0, the printer is on "lp". At startup I see something to the order o
