    Linux to Mac
    How do I get this Linux PC talking to my old Mac? I have Mandrake 9.2 and KDE desktop. The Mac is has a Power PC chip and is running Mac 7.6.1. I have a Belkin router 4 port router hard wired to both of them by ether net. The router feeds my cable modem to both.

    Since a driver for my HP PSC 2175 is not available for the Mac, I assume I can't share it.

    I don't have much experience with networking macs, but I do know that netatalk can be used to talk to macs, and it is probably what you are looking for.

    Have fun,

    Thanks. I will poke through my hard drive and see if I already have it.

    If that doesn't work for you, you could try asking on justlinux.com. I'm sure someone there will know exactly what you need to do.
