Where can I get drivers for...


RH 8:
1. NEC MultiSync FE991sb monitor
2. Epson Stylus C82 printer
3. Logitech MX700 mouse


Also,
Can you point me in the right direction for setting up RH8 on my Dell 8100 laptop. I have been to www.linux-laptop.net but I can't find others who have been having the same problem as I am.

My screen repaints are pretty slow when moving windows around. However, when a GL screensaver appears they seem to work fine. Any suggestions would be great.

I do have RH8 working on my laptop...i'm using it now...but I would like it to perform a little better.

Thanks for you help
D.

Not sure about the last two, but I'm pretty sure you don't need monitor "drivers" per se... you just need to know information such as the scan frequencies, which should be in your monitor's manual (or online, if you don't have the manual). You can configure them by running xf86config, or by editing XF86Config-4 directly.

I think you want to use CUPS, to my knowledge it is fully supported under LInux.

Try here for your printing needs:

I did get it to work using the Epson Sytlus C80 driver. I was just wanting to have specific support for the C82. I believe that I was using gimp(print)...But I also believe that CUPS will work too.
