modem and scanner problem with mandrake 9


Hi,
I'm a new user od mandrake 9 since last friday with dual boot with my win2k. I managed to install it ok but now i have a "few" problems:

- I have a EPSON 1250 and a Diamond Supraexpress 33.6 external modem but neither is recognized by mandrake. I runned HardDrake but nothing happens. (i want to recieve faxes with my modem) Where can i get the latest drivers and how can i install them?

- I have a HP920 connected to a win2k machine which is connected to a network and i want to use it. I installed samba and now i can view the partitions of my network. i run the wizard on my mandrake control center but when i try to print a test page, nothing works What now? I guess i must especify IP and etc but i don't know how..

- I also have an ADSL connection on this win2k machine and i to use it on my linux. I tried to configure it on the mandrake control center: It detected my network card but it doesn't connect.

I really aprecciate any help.

Best regards,

Filipe, from Portugal

I saw on xsane.org that my scanner isn't and will not be supported by xsane.
Then i found this site:
http://www.gjaeger.de/scanner/plustek.html -
and i see that my scanner is supported.
But i don't know what to download...
i don't know anything about compiling and stuff..

(i better buy a book about linux and learn more )
