Printing from Linux works now??

  Even audio works now. Truly, this is the year of Linux on the desktop.

    I left my Linux laptop unplugged by accident the other day and it suspended to disk before the battery ran out so I lost no data. It's like Linux became usable and I didn't notice.

      If you close the lid without suspending first, does it crash? Or has that been fixed too?
      • aidenn0 9y ago
        Did not crash for me.

    Does the new Firefox work with HTML 5 video? I listen to way too much youtube when I am working, and am still worried about making the switch.

      I just checked, and it works for me.

  Yeah, basically I just set all the drivers to postscript, and every recent printer I've tried (lasers only) has been happy to take postscript. This may mean more about the progression of cheap postscript-compat printers than Linux. But the wireless mdns discovery thing works, which is really nice.

  Since the change to Vista/Windows 7 required all new windows drivers for all printers, (many of which were old, outdated, and manufacturers didn't want to redo them) Linux has seemed much easier to print with..
