I've had a MS optical mouse for at least 3 years and have never
had to clean it, although I blow lint out with just my mouth once
in a while.

I just installed Mandrake 10.1 on top of 10.0 in my laptop. That's the only
way I can get the multithread boot option. My problem is that I have no

I have had a Microsoft optical trackball for about 18 months, and find that all

Hi All,
First post :-)
I've recently started the transition from XP to Mandrake and things
are generally going very well. Mandrake is great !!
However, inevitably help is needed.
Is it possible to get a Linux driver for the HP Photosmart 8450 ?
Could someone please tell me where and how.
