Do you have a spooling system, such as CUPS, up and running? If so, did you configure it to use the device that was created? Try running a test print through that. On Thu, Jun 19, 2003 at 11:15:31PM +0200, Bastux wrote: > > Hello, I'm using Gentoo and try to make my printer work. > I'm a linux ge

Hi everyone! My default configuration to start gentoo (using GRUB) right now is by directly starting xdm (actually kdm, logging in as default user). However, sometimes it would be nice to boot without directing starting the GUI. Would it be possible to add a GRUB entry to start gentoo without s
