printer won't stop
Hi all, I am using Debian 2.6 Sarge. In KDE I clicked on system, printers using foomatic-gui I installeda Canon BJC 4400 printer. After installation I clicked 'print test page'. My printer printed about 20 pages of cod and data. I can't figure out how to end it. I have shut it down for now using pause printer. I have a print job called Star office Job #1 size 146 k. I could let it print itself out but I would like to know how to take out this a print job to stop it for future reference.

importing files on CD
HI Folks, I am using Debian 3.0r2 Woody on a dual boot system along with windows. I am am new to Linux but have managed to partitioned and installed successfully. I need to bring over my files from windows by way of CD. In Gnome I've learned to mount them but don't understand how to import them into Home where I assume they need to be for me to continue working on them in ABI word or another word processor. I know this has got to be simple but one way or another I have made a major project out of it. Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.

Getting up and running
Hello all, So that you understand where I'm coming from, here is a rundown on what I'm trying to do. First of all I am a retired machinist. I have invented a couple of products that I would like to manufacture in my home workshop and sell on line.I plan to make these products on machines that I am presently building. They will be cnc machines run off of a PC. I don't consider Ms Windows stable enough to be used for that purpose. That leaves real time Linux or dos. It makes no sense to use dos as it seems a dead end street as far as improvement is concerned. I have not used dos so, I would have to learn it and would much rather spend my time learning Linux. At the present time, I am getting patents, designing my product and building machines to manufacture on, at the same time trying to set up and run Linux. Keep in mind I am 70 years old so learning comes much slower these days. I have installed Debian 3.0r2 ,and have been struggling on a now and then basis to get it up and running. I don't have enough time to devote to learn how to configure and get everything operating so that I can install Qcad and a CAM program and start working entirely in Linux. I really don't want to have to use Windows. I have seen machines running on Windows, repeatedly for no apparent reason, take off and slam into fixtures or tables doing great damage and wasting hours or even days of set up time. !. My questions are, would Fedora or some other program, after installed, be more operational than Debian leaving me less to learn in order to start to work? 2. Would some one with lots of patience be willing to take me under their wing on a one on one basis and help me get up and running. Know this, I'm not exactly dumb in all areas but for example I have been using Windows about 5 years and have not touched Dos so my computer knowledge is really shallow. Any advise or help will be greatly appreciated, Doug -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Well here we are again. My last e-mail sever was trying my patience. Every time I tried to down load a file of any size it timed out. So I decided to bite the bullet and go the cable route.

partition second hard drive
Hello all, I had a dual boot system with Windows and Linux installed. Bought a new cd writer and found out I had to upgrade win 98 to SE to use new software for writer. SE costs more than the writer did. Nuts to microsoft. Took Windows out and installed Debian Sarge with the new installer. I really am happy with it. My question is How do I reformat my second hard drive that is presently Fat 32 windows so that Linux can use it for backup. I tried cfdisk but linux cannot see the drive. I have a Maxtor cd for the drive, which is Maxtor, but there is no Linux formating available on it. I sent them an e-mail asking why not. Thanks in advance for any help.
