I well, sort of went to Scotland in May. Had a nice vacation. The
laptop issue had to be put on hold for a while.
On the note of going to Scotland.... I dowloaded the new drivers for my
Konica Minolta 2300DL printer. They print nice. My Epson 1160 prints
the 13x19 prints nice out of linux expect they are off center on the
page.
Not very far off center, just enough to be annoying. It starts on the
edge on one side instead of leaving a 1/4 inch margin, and leaves a 3/8
inch margain on the bottom of the print, and leaves a 1/4 inch margin
on the other two sides. It prints fine, and a nice frame might cover
up the margins... just it was annoying. Now finding a 13x19 inch
frame... that is another story. (nobody has them)

This could be one of the problems. I am real new at the wireless
thing. This is a wireless router in my house. I had to configure he
wireless router myself, and the configure the laptop to work with the
wireless router. I manage to get it to work through trial and error in
windows.
I am not real sure how I have it configured. I might have to log into
it to see. (If I can remember how to do that... this is a whole new
thing here.)
I did try connecting to it when I had no security settings on it, and
that did not work either. (I had to reset it after a power outage
once.)
So I am sure part of this is I don't really know what I am doing with
configuring a wireless network. I took it over to my nieces house, and
her husband is a computer student at college. He could configure the
windows partition to work with his wireless network, but not the linux
system to work with his wireless network. We also had a couple of
other pcmcia cards we attemted this with, and none of them would work.
So, it is just something I am not doing correctly, I am sure. Linux
9.3 found the card fine. I am going to have to end up going to a linux
users group to get this figured out. I was going to go this past
Saturday, but I ended up having to go to a funeral. It seems there is
always something to keep me away from a LUG meeting.
