Hello,

Yes, and it is quite new :-) I posted it in samba bugzilla, since 
everytime where I am not sure where to post a report I am told to 
post it at original bug tracking system.

You can tell by looking at google. Also there is a lengthy report at 
novell bugzilla about dropping smbfs (and comparing it to other 
distributions).

Yes, that would be great.

Of course I have only one router/printserver but I guess it is related 
to whole family of those models.

Yes.

The other reporter tried -- "we don't support linux". Companies really 
awkwardly react when I am asking for linux support (when I was about 
to buy Plustek scanner I got the answer, but when I asked about 
linux... silence :-)).

Probably you are :-) but it would be really nice to do so. Users who 
bought routers from USR would surely benefit from that.

have a nice day
bye
