Hi, I know most people have their Linux box connected to the net. I have my windows machine.
I know most people probably have their printers connected to their Linux machine. I have it connected to my windows machine. Seriously, aren't newbies like myself trying to find an alternative to windows? I have a working windows machine. Why pull it apart to try Linux. I want to add Linux to the windows machine and work on it to see if I like it. Keep my windows connected to my scanner, Internet and printer. Get my Linux using it all as my 2nd machine. Slowly migrate it as my main computer if I like it. Isn't that what most newbies do? That is my situation and now to my real question. 1. How the heck do I see my windows machine on my Linux machine? 2. How do I get my Linux machine to print using my printer hardware connected to my windows machine? No doubt I need to install some packages but what ones? Thanks in anticipation. Cheers Al
