I find amsn works very well with a webcam - should be in the standard repo.

I'm trying to install Debian Squeeze (net install CD) on a PC with an EX100 wireless keyboard and mouse. The system starts the install without any problem, and the keyboard works up to the first blue...

I've recently upgraded Galeon (distro is Debian Testing) and am now unable to print. On clicking on the Pint icon I get the following message: -

There was a problem printing. No printers could be...

Thanks for the feedback folks - apologies for the delay in getting back to you, it's been a busy week. I've taken the kev off the end of the first line, which hasn't made any difference.

The odd...

I've just installed Debian (Sarge) in place of FC4. Very impressed with the speed, but I've had a few teething problems, most of which I've resolved. However, on logging into Gnome I get the...

Stopped in the garage on the way to work this morning, as usual, to top up with diesel. Two of the forecourt staff were out front, and as I got out of the car one of them came over, and told me...

Kai, many thanks for your help - I've had time this evening to sit down and go through the man pages you mentioned, and coupled with your suggestions have now got Acrobat Reader and Galeon printing...

Many thanks for taking the time to run through this Kai - it really is good of you to give up your time and effort for this. Apologies again for the delay in posting back; it's proving to be one of...

Apologies for the delay in replying - held up at work last night. Here's the latest though. I've tried printing from Acrobat Reader on the wife's PC - nothing to either the 6P or 3320.

I've also...

Thanks for the replies guys. Just to clarify (my initial post was a little woolly, but I'm feeling that way at the moment - I've said "fsck it" several times already! :o ), your outline is correct...

Can anyone help with this please? I've a problem with printing in FC4.

As a background I've a Deskjet 3320 (USB) and Laserjet 6P (PP) attached to my FC4 PC; the 6P is the default printer. Both...

In order of coming to my mind, NOT alphabetical or by preference: -

1. Galeon - still the best browser IMHO
2. Yumex
3. Gaim
4. K3b
5. Kontact (does this count as one?)
6. Xmms
7. ...

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly MMYoung - tried doing as you suggested, but there's no Generic Printer listed, only sty640 and sty750. Clicking on the Properties button with either of these...

Can anyone help with this please? I've recently upgraded to FC2 from 1; everything seems to work now except for my printers.

I've a Stylus 750 on a USB port, and a Stylus 640 on the parallel port....

Can anyone here help with this please - it's not a Linux question I know, but I will be putting FC2 on the machine when it's sorted;) .

I'm with you on this Dizzybacon - for speed, ease of use, and useful features, Galeon's the best browser I've tried.
Firebird's not far behind though.

Hi,

I'm having problems getting Galeon to work with Fedora 1 (I know there some very good alternatives, but I do like Galeon).

I've tried several RH9 rpm's, from 1.2.10 to 1.3.10-1, and a...

Hi Mahdi,
I've tried Gnome, and it IS quick - a great improvement over RH9. I use KMail - rather than Evolution - which is fine.
I've tried running Xine from an icon and the Menu; the icon on the...

Fedora is very good - being lazy I upgraded from RH9 rather than running a fresh install, and just about everything that I've tried so far works perfectly. The newer version of KDE is good,...

KMail's now sending and receiving. All I did in the end was to go to Configure KMail and under Network, Sending move my ADSL ISP's outgoing account up the list to the default position. Don't know...

Many thanks for your suggestions JohnT - I went back into the router setup and changed the PPP setting, and it worked first time - my system has never been so up to date:)

However, my email client...
