I have KDE up and running but need help in alllowing use of my HP 960 printer (USB connection). KDE sees the printer but apparently does not have proper drivers. Any suggestions?

Try this: Open a terminal and type lpq. This will display the Unixy name of your printer, for example:

HL_1440_Series

To print lpr -P HL_1440_Series /path/to/document

This should print the document. If it does, in the printer setup dialog, try putting lpr -P HL_1440_Series and try printing.

Ken,

Sorry, this really isn't an answer to your question, but rather a question for you. You say you've got kde running. How did you do it? I've installed the following:

Apple's X11 Public Beta
Apple's X11 SDK
fink
FinkCommander

When I launch X11, all I get is the X11 term window.

I've tried creating an .xinitrc file in my home directory and adding the following:

startkde (didn't work)

source /sw/bin/init.sh /sw/bin/startkde >/sw/var/log/kde.log 2>&1 (didn't work either)

As a matter of fact, when I do put in either of those things within the .xinitrc file, the term window's menu bar gets pushed up off screen in the upper left hand corner, such that I can't move the window around.

What I'm expecting to happen is that when I launch X11 from the Finder, that the kde desktop environment will load and I'll essentially have two graphical environments running side-by-side: the Finder/Aqua and kde. Is this what is supposed to happen?
