Not any problems, but it's a Pentium 1. Damn slow (takes a minute or two to process a SIMPLE document to print out via min12xxw). I'm typing this post on it, though.

It Just Works(tm). I just threw the Mandrake CD in, and it worked.

Install worked fairly well figuring out my own way. I used the min12xxw driver available from http://www.hinterbergen.de/mala/min12xxw/, un-tarred it (tar xzvf min12xxw-0.0.5.tar.gz), and compiled it (cd min12xxw-0.0.5.tar.gz, make, su, make install). Next, I ran PrinterDrake, added the printer as a local printer, and it was autodetected. I used the PPD from http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Minolta-PagePro_1250W, and set up three queues - a 1200x1200 DPI queue, a 600x600 DPI queue, and a 300x300 DPI queue with Toner Saver enabled. Print quality on the first two was passable, except banding was severe on the 1200 DPI queue, and the radial lines in the test print were almost invisible. The 300 dpi print looked like it came off of an old dot matrix printer, and the radial lines had heavy moire.

Basic opto-mechanical 2 button + wheel mouse. It may be an everyday mouse, but it's great if you need a good, basic, solid mouse. SuSE recognized it right away. BTW, mine was black with silver buttons, and my high school uses Dell boxes that have no OEM markings on their mice.
