[S.u.S.E. Linux] Netscape / proxy problem
by hatridge＠straubing.baynet.de 25 Feb '98

25 Feb '98

Hi; I'm using SuSE Linux 4.4.1 with kernel 2.0.29. I've Netscape 4.04. I'm trying to setup the proxy. I go to preferences -> advanced -> proxies -> manual proxy configuration. There I input "proxy.straubing.baynet.de" with port 8080. It then gives me an error "Http (and FTP) proxy host "proxy.straubing.baynet" is unknown. What should I do? Thanks for your help.

Re: [S.u.S.E. Linux] epson stylus color 600
by mclark＠datsrvr.datsit.com 25 Feb '98

I seem to have figured it out. I read the documentation with ghostscript and found that the 'stc600ih.upp' driver is for the epson stylus color 600. (let me know if this is wrong) I started yast, went to system administration -- integrate hardware into system -- configure printers I selected user defined under printer name and entered stc600ih.upp I received several warnings that this is not a ghostscript driver, but ignored them. It prints great!!!! The only concern I have is all the warnings I received. mc Michael Clark wrote: > has anyone gotten the epson stylus color 600 configured properly??

It's definately an IRP conflict. I asked the same question to the list. Check the archives, that's prolli why no one is answering you.
