Just to say thanks to those who replied. '--force' worked with both
parts of the driver. The driver is not just a ppd. It contains some
library binaries as well. Main thing is, it works. I had a bit of a
problem with the scanner, but after spending more time on the Brother
Linux support site
have. I get the error message that they are for the
wrong architecture as they are i386 packages.
I don't suppose there is a workaround for this? The drivers are not
open-source as far as I know. Maybe I just have to stick with the 32
bit Ubuntu?

I'll bring a couple of laptops with Maverick desktop on them. If
anyone wants to install something else on one of our laptops, if it's
not a big hassle I don't mind doing it, or feel free to drop in and
sort it out yourself in advance :) Not sure
using Evolution was quite fast again. It had been
growing slower and slower with time.
Any comments?
I'll post the other issue separately.

As for Gmail, I like to have my stuff stored locally so I can access
e-mails when I don't have internet access. iMap on both NetBook and
Desktop suits me well as it syncs both computers nicely.

The registration doesn't seem to work with Firefox on Maverick, or at

for a Linux and OSS expo. And don't get me started on the spelling
mistakes on the registration

Oh, I hadn't said which magazines I want to take. That was needed too,
