[ILUG] USB hard disk strangeness.

[Darragh Ó Héiligh]

No. I haven't I got hit with some really bad luck.  Orca, my screen
reader for Gnome decided to start playing up on me.  It's dieing after
a few minutes when it's launched.  I've sent the debug file off to the
developers so hopefully I'll hear back from them today.

It seems to be one problem after another.

I've a list at this stage...
get Orca running again.
get the usb drive back and independant from the linux box.
figure out why Samba just stopped working all of a sudden.
Set up printing from samba.

Then I'll be happy...

I don't ask for much do I!

actually. I just had an idea.  hold on...

Here it is.  Thank god for serial connections.
