OK, thanks for confirming that this doesn't work as expected. I suppose we could save the sections as separate files, also. Cheers, Dave

I have a document that is intended to be printed front and back. Mirror margins works fine for this, and we have done this for a long time. However, there is one section of the document that we want to print as "normal" - front only. When I apply the Normal page setup to THIS SECTION, it...

I had a similar problem with optical drive on my HP laptop. I was completely convinced it was a hardware problem and so was HP tech support who issued me an RMA for warranty return/repair. Before mailing it back, I decide to try booting a Linux Live CD. It worked fine. So..... I kept going...

You can use option -R to chmod recursively down through the sub-directories. Google man chmod. But make sure you start down at the highest directory you actually want to change. It won't ask you twice.

I agree with stefanwagner - I don't think you'll will have much luck with your approach for anything except basic text. I can take the same Word document and print to different printers and see a lot of differences even in Windows. If it is a final document, a better (but not perfect)...

I don't know the answer, but a Google search turned up this bug notice: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/+bug/569372 I would suggest unplugging the DVI connection to the TV - simplify the system as much as possible and see if you can get it to boot.

It would help if you tell us the type of operating system. PHP only works in conjunction with the web server software, so you need to take that into consideration. If you are just wanting a test platform for development, it might make more sense to set up a local system with Apache, mySQL and...

Package management is a key feature of all distributions. If you are just starting out, you'd be well off to use the standard packages provided with your distribution and install using the intended software. I know nothing about Mint, but the Debian apt package management system is one of the...

To shutdown (as root): shutdown -h now To reboot (as root): shutdown -r now For the USB drive, check the output of dmesg to see what it thinks the drive is. How is the drive formatted?

This might have something to help: http://developer.apple.com/iphone/index.action I'd say any new Apple machine could handle the development system.

You might start here: http://www.aboutdebian.com/ There are a lot of resources on using Linux servers. For use in a Windows environment, search for "samba servers" or something similar. The documentation for Samba at www.samba.org is pretty good as well. If your users share files that...

We have similar network, with about 8 Windows XP/Vista machines, and several network printers. We replaced our old Windows 2000 server about 18 months ago with a new box running Debian Linux. The server is configured as a standalone server in Samba - no Active Directory. We use the Linux...

I don't see a wireless interface in ifconfig. Take a look in /etc/network/interfaces and also look in lsmod to see if there is a module being loaded for your wireless NIC. You may need to do some research on how to get this card running under Linux...
