Re: [newbie] Uninstall Linux

Re: [newbie] Problems with printer and modem install in Mandrake 7.1
Thanks, Alan! It looks as if it's time to contact Lexmark.

[newbie] Uninstall Linux
Hi! I've recently bought Linux-Mandrake 7.1 and installed it on my computer.

[newbie] Problems with printer and modem install in Mandrake 7.1
Hi! I've just installed Mandrake 7.1 on a machine that had Windows 98 on it. I've got a 3-Com 56K Winmodem Int and a Lexmark Z32 printer that I can't get Mandrake to recognize. They work alright in Windows (Using 5 Gigs on an 8 Gig hard-drive) but I partitioned off 3 Gigs for Mandrake and they won't work. Everything else APPEARS to work in Mandrake, though. Any suggestions??? Lynn Johnson Iowa -- "To HELL with empire, WE WANT OUR COUNTRY BACK!!" Patrick J. Buchanan Reform Party presidential nominee August 12, 2000 Long Beach, Cal.
