Hi Bob,

FYI, you need to wrap your lines at about 72 rather than send one long
line.

I'm not sure what you mean "comes up in grub". Grub is a boot loader
that should present you with a menu with a default boot that will
automatically boot after a few seconds delay.

If you don't get a gnome desktop you are probably getting a regular
login prompt.

Please post exactly what you see on the screen that you are calling
"comes up in grub".

Also, for further reference, you don't have to reinstall just to get
printing working.


Doug.
