HP 932 printer and Woody

Has anyone managed to get the HP 900 series to work with Woody? I've tried the search engines and the HP Linux driver page to absolutely no avail. Since the HP 932 printer works flawlessly with Suse, Mandrake, and RH, is it not logical to assume it should work with Woody? Any feedback on this would

Is it an old USR modem? I found some interesting notes about USR modems having difficulty just after a ppp connection is made. Setting a register fixed my problem (USR Spostser 28800 V.34). See http://www.wb.nic.in/internet/robotics.html -Paul On Sat, 27 Apr 2002 12:28 "Janis HAGELBERG" <[EM

Re: strange PPPd problems (dialing out)

No, just trying to get both modems to work! I figured it out, apparently the USR Spostser 28800 V.34 as well as other USR modem have problems just after a ppp connection is made. Setting register S33 to 32 (S33=32) fixed my problem. -Paul On Sun, 28 Apr 2002 00:24:04 +1000 "Rob Weir" <[EMAIL P

Normally you should see a few lines informing you that the driver has found a device. If noting appears then you use the wrong driver or you have another prob
