Windows Driver on CUPS
by George Irungu 15 Jul '10

15 Jul '10

Ahoy Skunkers of both night and day.. I have a Linux print server running CUPS and samba where I want to connect windows clients. i.e. windows machines to print from this server. I do not want to install drivers on the windows machines as this beats the purpose of having a print server in the first place. I want them on the print server. The server is running FC8, the hosts are on XP and Win 7. Anyone with an idea how I can share the windows drivers on the fc8 server? Regards, George.

by Kennedy Kairaria 15 Jul '10

15 Jul '10

Jambo skunk(ette)s, Now I have this report wher a certain field is populated by multiplying 2 fields from 2 different tables. At the group footer I want the summation to display. I have the fomular working for indiviual records I pull to the report, but when it comes to summation it adds extra figures (i.e 20 if they are 2 records , 30 if thay are 3 records ...) and I can't figure where they come from. Can anyone tell me what am I doing wrong? Ken.

Photoshop gurus

Hi skunks, I'm using the line tool on Photoshop but it keeps drawing a rectangle. There must be a setting somewhere I have tampered with but I can't figure it out. It's not drawing a straight line, it's kind of acting like the rectangle tool/shape. Your help will be much appreciated.

Bharti Airtel in a kenyan market.
by aki 15 Jul '10

15 Jul '10

Been reading some article.......They need to know we are in the data age and not the traditional voice era. And the data era we are in is not a few kilobits per second but broadband on mobile networks. Kencell, then Celtel then Zain gave empty promises on data services such as 3G. With Safaricom heading to 4G hopefully, is Airtel trying to re-invent the wheel on rural tele-density? Low cost high volume model is every telcos dream, will they be able to pull it off without any more investments in infrastructure? The official launch is in October this year........... Since am in the Orange camp ( Orange TKL Kenya ) , I wonder when they go 3G? Me thots.
