Re: [Scottish] Anybody want an HP Deskjet 500 printer?
If you don't have a printer that works in Linux, then your needs are greater than mine, as I do.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] .lug.org.uk 12-06-03 15:54 Please respond to scottish I have an old HP Deskjet 500 printer that I no longer require. Would anybody like it? It's in perfect working order although, as you would expect given its age, it's a little slow and has a resolution of 'only' 300dpi. I'm in the Woodlands area of Glasgow and if you'd like it, you'd have to pick it up from me as I don't have any transport.

HP is pretty good at that. APSFilter is perfectly OK with DeskJet 500s. Incidentally, I have an old DeskJet 500 as well, which I've never actually used. Don't know if it works or not. You (or indeed anyone else) is welcome to take that away as well. Cheers, Gordon ___ Scottish mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/scottish
[Scottish] button
Hi, on my home system, when linux is booted, when i press the button on either of my CD/DVD drives, it doesn't react (doesn't open, anyway). I wondered if a tweak was possible so that the button 1. unmounts the filesystem, whatever it may be 2. opens the wee drawer maybe one of you has done it ?

Hi Elise, have you tried using the 'eject' command. If you have only 1 cd drive just typing eject should work. To get to my second cd/dvd drive, I use eject /mnt/cdrom1 cheers Lawrence ___ Scottish mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/scottish

I think it may be possible to trap the button press somehow. ___ Scottish mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/scottish
