RE: [newbie] setup my PCI modem !

[Martin, Darin W.]

Unfortunately, the Olitec PCI modems are software driven.  They will only
work with the drivers that were written for Windows 95/98.  There is no way
to make the modem work under Mandrake or any other Linux distribution.

Check out Samba.  Samba allows you to access Windows shares and also allows
you to share disk space and printers to other Windows users.

 I have a Linux Server (well it's not really a server, but I'd like to call
 it one) that has a deskjet 720C printer (HP) connected to it. is there
 anyway for the windows machines to print to the printer, while I'm running
 Linux on the server? If so how?
 let me know
 
 thanks

RE: [newbie] How do I install my scanner Umax S-6E?

[Martin, Darin W.]

Joao, 
  Before spending the money on a new SCSI card, go to the SANE page and try
their drivers.  They list your scanner and the controller it comes with as
supported.. Their site is at http://www.mostang.com/sane/

 Hello  
   
   Thank you very much for the information and for the attention. It is
 a
 sad news, but I will take your advice because, I find, this will be the
 only form of doing my scanner to work. But, even so, I would like
 something to know on which module for a generic board scsi, do you know?
 Thank you again.

   Hello
  
   Does by chance anybody have a scanner of the mark Umax S-6E? I
 saw in
   the sane that there is the drive for him, but when I made the
   installation of Mandrake it didn't consist a scsi board for him. I
 wrote
   for to Umax so that they informed me which the type of the scsi board
   that they used for S-6E, but until today I didn't obtain answer. Did I
   Read in the documents of the sane that the kernel should include a
   module (?) of generic scsi, what module is this? How do I do so that
 it
   is carried by the kernel or so that it is included in him? What should
   read to enable my scanner? At once thank you very much.
  
  The SCSI board that ships with the S-6E is a completely worthless piece
  of crap and should be tossed into the nearest trash can.  Pick up a
  cheap Adaptec and install the kernel drivers for it and you'll be fine
  with that scanner.  I used to run the same here with an AHA-1524 card
  (at least, I think that was the number of the card, it's been awhile).
