How do you think I got it to work on slackware? I know that scsi
disk support is needed. See the config file the last time (below) I
recompiled my kernel, wondering if I had forgotten something. I hadn't,
and re-compiling did not make a difference. I tired both putting the
printer and PPA as modules, and even switched ppa to kernel support,
leaving the printer as a module, and I get the same results.
