Corel Linux 1.0

Hi,

        I have with me a copy of Corel's Linux, Open Circulation
version 1.0. Please mail me personally if anyone wants to give it a
try. It's basically a stripped down version of Debian 2.1 with a
graphical installer, and a modified KDE desktop with WP for Linux.

Re: Printer installation

the LI lists gave a solution to this about adding a line somewhere...
visit www.exocore.com/linux for the solution

Add the following line to /etc/conf.modules: 
alias parport_lowlevel parport_pc
