Tried Drake 7.2 lastnight and I must say I was a bit bummed out. It threw fits when I tried to configure a Screen Resolution of 1024X768 (32 bits) and it never printed a test page correctly. Has anyone else had these problems?

Not sure about printing, but I had to run Xconfigurator in the console mode - completely OUT of X in order to make the settings stick. Once I did that, it was fine. Had to do the same thing w/ sndconfig.
Hope that helps.
While I have in the past set my X setting to 32 bit colour with a Rage Fury, the r128 driver only accepts up to 24 bit color. That might be the problem there.

Problems printing? Use kups or Cups can't remember which. But once you get familiar with it it's easier than windows to set-up a printer and all! What is your video card?
