[newbie] modprob

2003-02-04 Thread d.diniz
I've read somewhere that i must add the lines options scanner vendor=0x04a9 
product=0x2206 (with the apropriate vendor and product id for my scanner) and 
pre-install usb-uhci modprobe scanner to /etc/modules.conf and the appropriate 
device driver will automatically be loaded when the machine boots. 
I thought that i was doing this right, but...it seems that i'm doing something wrong 
somewhere..
BTW, i have an epson 1250 photo and i'm using iscan

TIA for any help

 Hi Filipe.  I have not come across this before.  I used my Epson 1650 with 
 iscan under 8.2, and use it with the supplied drivers under 9.0.  I did not 
 have to set up any extra parameters.  Make sure your scanner is on, then 
 start up MCC.  Go to Hardware.  Ignore the Scanners icon, that seems to be 
 for setting one up manually, and you shouldn't need to do that.  Look at 
 Hardware List.  Is your scanner recognised?  If so, it should work.
 
 How are you trying to use it?  You can scan from XSane, but I prefer to scan 
 from Gimp.  It's up to you.
 
 Let us know how you get on.

My scanner is not supported be sane (mine is an epson 1250 photo usb). I can only use 
it with Iscan, but everytime i want to use it i must modprob... beforei launch 
Iscan. I want to know how can mdk recognize it at boot. I've seen that it can be done.

thanks

[newbie] corel photo paint

2003-01-28 Thread d.diniz
I've downloaded corel photo paint 8 from corel site but i can't install it :( I know 
that i'm a total newbie on linux and all the stuff (make, make install) is still a bit 
confusing for me.. (although i followed the install instructions)
Is there a RPM for it?
As anyone have installed it on mdk 9? Can it work in CMYK? (that's why a can't work 
with gimp)

Any ideias?

Filipe

BTW: what is wrong about CMYK and linux. Are they uncompatible? Humm, it seems that 
CMYK is open source..
BTW(2): I tested sketch as an freehand alternative but it can't handle Pantone colors. 
Is the same as CMYK? No open source either?

[newbie] (long) startup smb service problem

2002-12-23 Thread d.diniz
Stephen,
i've installed webmin and tried to do what you said but with no luck. The first time i 
installed webmin i couldn't even make a a clean startup. It maked that same 
filesystem integrity check and several items at startup appear FAILED. I then 
reinstall webmin and everything is fine now. I even changed in Webmin the Allow null 
passwords and now i at startup i can pass the smb file mount [OK] but i must hit 
ENTER twice as usual. I haven't figured out how to avoid this. I just just want samba 
to automount all the filesystems without prompt me anything.

here is my FULL smb.conf:
