Mandrake 9.1 Biteage (was: Re: [ale] New PostFix install)

[hbbs at attbi.com]

Since when do such "upgrades" *ever* seem to work?

I did a fresh install of Mandrake 9.1 just last week.  All of the drivers
available for my Canon BJC-4300 inkjet printer result in double-wide printing
(even if I just lpr a text file).  Worked great under 9.0...
