Audio/video recording software
Hi everyone! :-)
I am supposed to get (for the first time) into the world of making youtube
clips. I have a webcam, a microphone and a big hard drive configured and ready.
The question is: what would you suggest as an easy-to-use yum-installable app
that could handle a couple of minutes/hours of recording?
People who are about to use it are complete noobs, and I would like to give
them a

Need tip on an inexpensive printer for college student using CentOS 5.5
Sending my son back to college with a dual-boot laptop with Win 7 and
CentOS 5.5. He uses Win7 to manage his iPod and SW that sometimes
issued by a professor for a specific course...otherwise he uses CentOS
for everything else. That setup worked well last year, except for
printing. He has a low-end Cannon printer that is not supported in the
Linux realm.

CUPS drivers for wide printer
I found the .ppd for our brand new HP z3200ps 44" printer - a coworker got
me the one from the Mac, and I edited it to separate out the Mac-only
commands (there's even an #ifdef in ppd language), and it prints; I don't
even need postprocessing, apparently... except that even though it knows
how wide the paper is (in this case, a 24" wide roll that came with the
printer), it

CentOS 6.5 printer weirdness...
Ok, it is consistent and repeatable:
*Everytime* I do a routine 'yum update' on the CentOS 6.5 server (64-bit) the
printers (both of them networked laser printers, one an [old] HP Laserjet 4200
and one a [new] Brother MFC-9970CDW), cups loses the ability to print (its
filter chain becomes broken). According to the CUPS mailing list, this error
is 'never' because of of problem with

Hi,
I created a PDFPrinter as per

I have another question, do I need to add a Color Laser Printer Driver in

Printer recommendations
Since my old Epson C86 has finally managed to clog up the print heads,
I'm in the market for a replacement. I'd like to know what the people
on this list are using for printers that are currently available, since
we are using versions of CUPS and foomatic that are frozen, and any
other issues or "gotchas" that you are aware of.
For the replacement printer, I'm considering a

/boot on a separate partition?
Do most people today have /boot on a separate partition,
or do they (you) have it on the / partition ?

HP L7780 support in hplip 1.6.7???
Alle,
I have an HP L7780 MFP, which is supported under hplip 1.7.2 but not the
current install of 1.6.7. Does anyone know of a way just to add that
particular driver to 1.6.7, or will it require removing the standard
1.6.7 and doing a custom install of 1.7.2. If the latter, what would you
consider the dangers/other implications of going "rogue"?
Best Regards,
Camron

486 custom kernel
Hi all,
Is it possible to take the 686 CentOS 5, install that in virtual machine,
install a custom kernel that is the 486 flavor, take that image and
put it on a 8G CF card - insert that into a small form factor 486 class
machine and have that work?
I am hoping the extra instructions in a 686 (MMX, SEE etc) are not used
by any libraries
that I would be using (just standard stuff) and the new

A few issues with samba & cups
Hi all.
I have Samba-3.0.1 sharing 2 printers via the 'share all printers'
feature - the printers are an HP 4500 colour laser, and a Ricoh Aficio
AP3200 ( accepting jobs like a network HP does ).
I followed the instructions on the CUPS website for sharing printers
with the CUPS windows driver, using their 'cupsaddsmb' script, which
basically takes your existing ppd file, and

printers... (HP)
I can't remember if I asked here - I've got more than one printer, HP,
laser, builtin JetDirect. When I go there in a browser, I see the basic
thing, but I can't get to the networking page. It says that it wants a
password, no user name. It doesn't accept anything. Last week, a co-worker
reset one to factory defaults... and it comes up with the same thing.

Sharing a USB Printer
We're trying to share an Epson USB inkjet printer via Samba 3.0.2-7 on our new
Fedora server.
The share is set up OK, and can be seen and opened from Windows clients. However,
although the Fedora box can print to the Epson, the Windows boxes can't.
All other Samba shares, including a laser printer connected to the parallel port,
work fine.
Does anyone have a clue how to fix this?

Unable to print with the Wine PS driver
I'm trying to get Wine to print through it's PS driver, without success, on a HP DeskJet 694C, configured on Linux with the cdj670 driver.
What I get to see on screen after I attempt to print are three windows with exclamation marks on a yellow triangle and garbled text. The
first window is titled "Printer name", the second "Device name", the third "Output".

HP vs. Brother Printers: Use with Centos/Fedora
We currently have a Brother MFC-5490CN. Printer firmware is dated June 1010. (yeah, 10 years old). Few years ago the brother software
wouldn't work for printing under Fedora. No problem, can print under Windows 10. Then it stopped scanning. Could still print...under
Windows.
Now, to fix the scanning features working I installed updated drivers under Windows, now it scans like champ, but
