Comments/Problems: No problems. Between SANE, HP3900 scanner wrapper,
PWC, kpilot, and ndiswrapper, all my hardware is supported and
functional! Gpilot doesn't get along with my Palm but that's OK
because Kpilot works and I didn't want to use Evolution anyway.
Now that I'm in practice (I'm still a Linux n00b but this is my third
attempted installation in a month), installation & configuration took
less than a day. While this is a dual-boot setup at least while I
figure out if I can use a Windoze emulator to run my MS Flight
Simulator, I have no doubt Linux and Debian now will be my primary OS--
looks like you have a convert to the cause!
