Hi,
So I've got myself Linux SuSE (7.2 personal), and it all installed pretty well. The printer is printing, but not in colour (HP DJ880C), and the CD drive is working, but the speakers aren't yet. The word processor and spreadsheet should be sufficient for my report writing (although i'm going to need a substantial database - any ideas?).
The problem that I've got is the modem, which is a Conexant HCF 56K speakerphone PCI Modem. Now I can find a driver for it, but if I download it in windows, how can I transfer it across to Linux? Any help would be very gratefully received.
Apart from that, all seems to be going pretty painlessly. I'm impressed. I certainly like the feel of it, and the software that came on the CDs is pretty extensive.
A friend at work says that I'll be back on windows in three weeks - if I can sort the modem out I think that I might make things permanent!
Dave.
