Hello,
I just have one question -- when I print to LaserJet with "lp" (from
lprng package) command, it seems it didn't use spool directory. In
other words, when I do:
$ lp somefile.ps
lp waits until it sends whole file to the printer, instead to put the
file into queue. How to change it?
Thank y

Ok, here's a weird one: I started GIMP today, and while it was trying to
load a plug-in, my Zip started spinning non-stop. I did a ps alx to see
if I could find the process causing it, and there didn't seem to be one.
So I unplugged my Zip, plugged it back in, then tried to mount it, and it

Assuming that win98 is on one partition which takes up your entire
drive (which I assume you mean), you need a partitioning program which
can resize partitions. AFAIK Partition Magic is the only one which
will do this.
