Re: Getting started with QuadtoneRIP on Linux?

2004-01-31 by André Vallejo

Hi.
I myself have been trying to set it up with no success so far. I'm a Windows
guy,and set up RedHat 9,downloaded from the official site,in a separate
partition of a second HD.With all the necessary packages in place,I still
can\ufffdt make it install till the end,it's always complaining about a package
it can't find (though they are there...) Actually I can\ufffdt even make my
printers to work under Linux,it recognizes it's presence,but when I command
it to print,it pretends it's not listening...I gave up for a while,maybe
will be tring again anyday...
