I'm surprised by the anti-HP comments. Have you had problems with HP on
Mandriva before, or is the rumor-mill in action here. I've operated a
LaserJet 6L for the last few years on Mandrake/Mandriva (from sometime in the
8.x timeframe), and replaced it with a HP Color LaserJet 2550 about two
months ago. No problems with either of them. I realize the the 2550 is in a
different price category than your Lexmark, but the point is that HPs are not
the dogs you make them out to be.

Refer to above.

A German, a Pole and a Czech left camp for a hike through the woods.
After being reported missing a day or two later, rangers found two bears,
one a male, one a female, looking suspiciously overstuffed. They killed
the female, autopsied her, and sure enough, found the German and the Pole.
"What do you think?" said the the first ranger.
"The Czech is in the male," replied the second.
