I unfortunately bought a Lexmark X1170 all in one two years back, it was cheap and got both printer and scanner. It worked fine on Windows.

RPM PBone Search. Not enough search parameters. I'm using defaults. You have chosen search in content of rpms.
It was just paper weight ever since I moved to Linux.I struck luck yesterday, when I stumbled upon a on Ubuntu forum.So I started out straightaway, but had trouble getting the correct drivers from Lexmark site, as instructed in the forum (Got 404). So I went and searched in opendrivers.com and fortunately found it. To help all the poor soles to get the drivers easily I have hosted the rpms.
If you download these rpms you can skip the part upto converting the rpms with alien if you are using a debian based system, or install the rpms and continue from restarting CUPS.Here are the links:The instructions worked like a charm, and now I’m making use of my printer finally. From my point of view X1100 series is a repackage of Z600 series with a scanner.Even though the scanner was correctly detected by SANE, I was unable to scan. But the version of sane that comes with Fedora Core 6 (Zod) is old. That’s a cool desktop applet to show the systme temperature, fan speed, voltage, etc.After I got lmsensors running I wanted to get the sensor information on my desktop running GNOME.
I installed GNOME Sensors Applet using yum (yum install gnome-applet-sensors).It showed three temperatures(Only two successfully, other with an error), and I removed one. Two temperatures must be mother board and cpu temperature.You should give a try to GNOME Sensors Applet, if you miss the Windows applets that are usually provided by the mother board manufacturers or just curious.Cool applet, thumbs up Alex Murray and lmsensors project.
Because of many reasons I have to use wvdial to manually run 3G/4G Internet connection on my laptop. It connects but strange error is dislayed:Code: root@piotr-l # wvdial play- WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.61- Initializing modem.- Sending: ATHATHOK- Sending: ATE1ATE1OK- Sending: AT+CGDCONT=1,'IP','internet'AT+CGDCONT=1,'IP','internet'OK- Modem initialized.- Sending: ATD.99#- Waiting for carrier.ATD.99#CONNECT- Carrier detected.

I got here googling the same error/crash with wvdial. So, I got the source rpm, modified the specfile with the switches in the cited bug report and built lib64wvstreams4.6-4.6.1-7.mga3.x8664.rpmI installed that along with the wvdial 64-bit rpm in Mageia 3 repositories. This negotiates a connection with my isp and retrieves DNS servers.Code: $ wvdial- WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.61- Cannot set information for serial port.- Initializing modem.- Sending: ATZATZOK- Sending: ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0ATQ0 V1 E1 S0=0 &C1 &D2 +FCLASS=0OK- Modem initialized.- Sending: ATDT2880177- Waiting for carrier.ATDT2880177CONNECT 57600/V32b 14400/V42b/SREJ- Carrier detected.

Ping directly an ip doesn't work, either. I simply disconnect by `ifconfig eth0 down` or the network manager my broadband connection before trying this and there might be some interference from that, idk, I'm not very network savvy. I do get this:Code: # routeKernel IP routing tableDestination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Ifacedefault. 0.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 ppp069.19.217.13. 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 ppp0Maybe someone wants to try the rpm with their app on a 64-bit machine: Posts: 113 Joined: Mar 25th, '11, 02:58.
I just install Your rpm, but still I got wvdial error. The connection works, but the error still exist. I use 64 bit M3 too.root@piotr-l Pobrane# wvdial play- WvDial: Internet dialer version 1.61- Initializing modem.- Sending: ATHATHOK- Sending: ATE1ATE1OK- Sending: AT+CGDCONT=1,'IP','internet'AT+CGDCONT=1,'IP','internet'OK- Modem initialized.- Sending: ATD.99#- Waiting for carrier.ATD.99#CONNECT- Carrier detected.

That's disappointing. What method did you use to install it? I ask because I did not change the name of the rpm and that fact could be a source of confusion for rpm/urpmi.To be sure, what I did was to remove both packages, wvdial-1.61-4.mga3 and lib64wvstreams4.6-4.6.1-7.mga3.
Then, I installed the modified lib64wvstreams4.6-4.6.1-7.mga3 by giving urpmi the path to the rpm (url would work). Then, I installed wvdial.It's all more of a mystery than anything else, to me. I only just made a stab in the dark about where and how to modify the spec file. Also, the connection I get looks valid but the network is unreachable Posts: 113 Joined: Mar 25th, '11, 02:58. Uninstall both, to copy what I did.Get to be root in a terminal program. Do the following, and copy/paste the history of the commands and messages back here, in case there is some problem.Code: urpme wvdial lib64wvstreams4.6Then, you should be able to install my rpm by clicking on the link. Then, back to the terminal:Code: urpmi wvdialYou should be able to see, in the terminal messages, the rpm is fetched from a Mageia mirror, maybe your DVD.ISTR, in the past, using the gui software installer from the web browser, there is some situation, such as 'package already installed' that does not get reported, so nothing gets installed.

Could you copy and paste the terminal contents from beginning to end for all this? Posts: 113 Joined: Mar 25th, '11, 02:58. Get to be root in a terminal program.

Do the following, and copy/paste the history of the commands and messages back here, in case there is some problem.Code: Select allurpme wvdial lib64wvstreams4.6Then, you should be able to install my rpm by clicking on the link. Then, back to the terminal:Your terminal shows that you skipped this step. Accordingly, urpmi installed the mageia rpm for lib64wvstreams4.6 from the mirror.Code: $MIRRORLIST: media/core/release/lib64wvstreams4.6-4.6.1-7.mga3.x8664.rpmStart over, remove the two rpms with the first urpme command. Then, install my rpm. Just click on the link and let software installer do it. Then, install wvdial, which comes from the mageia mirrors, which is working, for me.Code: urpmi wvdial^^^^The very last move, installing wvdial by itself.
