[00:01] the book I bought on Ubuntu has also been helpful as a reference tool [00:01] i bet [00:01] and of course helpful people in the community are good too. [00:04] hey I am looking at the link for scribus - which is the better - 32 or 64 bit? [00:05] it looks like a decent program [00:05] DoctorTruth: i think you can debate which is better all day [00:05] you need the one for your machine [00:05] i think its in the repos [00:06] alright - synaptics you mean [00:08] DoctorTruth: however you feel comfortable accessing the repositories [00:08] synaptic [00:08] software center [00:08] sudo apt-cache search scribus [00:09] ok - getting it to try out [00:09] it literally cant hurt ;) [00:09] i tried it for something [00:09] in windows [00:09] and it did the job [00:10] this was years ago [00:10] now-a-days, i would probably just do a blog [00:10] in the cloud or whatever [00:10] no backup necessary [00:10] easy to share/print [00:10] whatever [00:11] thanks for your time - oh now that I have you here. Do you know if I would be able to run a printer through wine. I was unable to find the drivers for it when I got ububntu a few months ago [00:11] its a cannon mp190 [00:12] clor printer/scanner all in one [00:12] oops color [00:12] i would say no [00:12] we used to have ndiswrapper [00:12] for wifi drivers [00:13] not sure how much of that carried over to other devices [00:13] I ended up having to by a new printer - a brother [00:13] probably better off [00:13] but its not color and does not have a scanner [00:13] : ( [00:13] new printers are usually about as cheap as replacing the ink cartridges now [00:13] its better for documents though which I like [00:14] yeah i agree [00:14] DoctorTruth: plug it in [00:14] the printer/scanner [00:14] and go to... [00:14] maybe it will just magically work now? [00:14] graphics-simplescan [00:14] it will search for a scanner it can use [00:15] as far as the printer... let me look [00:16] I could always buy a new one I suppose but i don't print to many photos anyway [00:16] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1090566 [00:16] i have a laser printer [00:16] old brother [00:16] black and white [00:16] i cant tolerate dealing with ink jet ink anymore [00:16] i just go to the kinkos if i need that [00:18] yeah thats what I should do too ink is expensive and not worth it in the long run anyhow [00:18] i have some fancy cannon [00:18] *epson [00:19] with no ink anymore [00:19] thats the scanner i use [00:19] I just wanted my scanner running again [00:19] its recognized with linux though [00:19] plug and play [00:19] cool [00:19] DoctorTruth: sometimes you can find them at the charity shops [00:20] scanners [00:20] scanners u mean [00:20] ahh [00:20] thanks [00:20] old drivers though [00:20] i see printer/scanners all the time for a couple bucks [00:20] DoctorTruth: doesnt matter how old [00:20] harder to find?
