yeah, isn't that discouraging? I have a xerox workcenter 35 or some
such. I installed the drivers once (on suse 10 I think) and it worked,
now on SLED10 I can't get it to work.

Too many things like that, still ... can't get the cisco vpn to work,
because my kernel is smp, can't get the SLED/Novell VPN to work,
either for some unknown reason. My buddy that I tried to encourage to
use linux can't get his wireless to work (and neither can I ... he had
to buy an intel).

Frustrating, when used to things "just working" most of the time. But,
I believe the effort is worth it.

I just keep thinking "for the long run, for the long run" and "it's
not microsoft, it's not microsoft" ...
