I'd just like to know if it has been fixed. The reason I am asking is because I have found that the lpa driver creates a very heavy system load when downloading graphics to a laser printer at several Kbytes/s. (This tends to annoy interactive users ;-) Geoff. -- ===========================csgr@alpha.ru.ac.za================================ Geoff Rehmet, Parallel Processing Group, | ____ _ o /\ Computer Science Department, | ___ _-\_<, /\/\/\ Rhodes University, RSA. | (*)/'(*) /\/\/\/\/\
