I installed 2.1.0-SNAP on my Micron P100 a few weeks ago and am extremely happy
with it. I do have a couple of questions though.

I have the Buslogic PCI adapter (946C) in my machine and while the adapter
bios claims that synchronous mode is enabled for all the devices, at bootup
this is what I get:



bt0: Bt946C/ 0-PCI/EISA/VLB(32bit) bus
bt0: reading board settings, busmastering, int=11
bt0: version 4.25J, async only, parity, 32 mbxs, 32 ccbs
bt0: targ 0 async   ^^^^^^^^^^
bt0: targ 6 async

Can someone please explain what's going on ?


The second question I have is about printing. I have a Panasonic 4400 printer
and while I am able to print postscript files (via gs) I can't print simple
text files. It seems that I need to translate Linefeeds to CR-LF. Can anyone
help me with the printcap entry for that  ?
