Remote printer failures with 8.0

2003-01-17 Thread Tom Ball
Since upgrading to 8.0, I can no longer print to a remote printer using either LPD or CUPS. In either case, what looks like a flow control problem causes raw printer code to be printed as ASCII. I'm using the gimp-print driver to connect with an Epson C80 via a print server. Anyone have similar

Kernel panic with ext3 root set to writeback

2002-12-19 Thread Tom Ball
