Emne: Finding the Sound Card and Printer
Red Hat 8.0 identifies my sound card but
can't open /dev/dsp* (I forget exactly
which dsp). My user-id has sole access,
with full read/write permissions.

My printer is also recognized, but won't
activate. I get a generic printer with
some apps, but any print gets lost in the
bit bucket.

My Windows setup was broken (more than
usual) for a couple of weeks, so I've
been trying to do more with Linux.

Ideas?

Thanks,

Vic

P.S. -
A lot of stuff doesn't work for me.
But incidentally, my network connection
(via Cox) seems a lot solider from
Linux than it is from Win98; and my
CDRW works nicely under Linux while it
gives me a blue screen every time,
recently, under Windows.
