KWORD when i did the test printer
in Install, it was slow, but it worked., however I did not try to print a KWORD
document. should I try that?
can You give me a screenshot? I
don't know how
what's the contents of your /etc/printcap file? what is that? remember, i don't know anything but what's
on the desk top. and the menu bars. I don't know coding, But I'll try to look
for it.
I learned how to save something to a floppy disk,
and retrieve

this is
a good thing to add. the easy way to use the floppy is to click on it in My Linux System and use all operations through the gui. but yes, we should find a way to add it to the file dialog menus also. some how I found a menu bar for the top of the
desk top. in there I put mount floppy and CD-ROM That's how I was able to use
the Floppy. in build 25, that method worked for reading the CD-ROM drive
also.

you insert the cd. no mounting is necessary. if this is a kautorun issue, it should be fixed in build 27. I just popped it in. when it didn't go on after
a while, I clicked on the CD-ROM icon with he sunglasses on the control bar on
the bottom. (that's when it said it didn't work) I also went into the KDE
menu (like start menu in Windows) and clicked on listen to music CD. niether
method worked.
thanks Joe
