Hi again,

I'm not impolite i'm just having trouble gettin the post on, I am tring to get a win98 comp with a printer share working and at one point got the suse to be able to browse right in to win but could not get it to 'look up' the printer in yast printer set up, also i would like to store the scanned images of some of the articles im my mags as i havent got the space to keep them all 'off the same win comp' I have bought 'the suse 10 bible' and the 9in1 networking for dummies, and various other titles. I have followed 'hacking open suse and that worked but will still not play some wmv3 files. All the mods i have done with yast including kde 3.5.1, I have also got it playing dvd's.
Cheers nick
