Lexmark's Linux Secret

After months of wrangling within the company, Lexmark has stepped up to become a Linux and open-source friendly company. We are seeing how far this Linux support extends as we try out the Lexmark Pro905 Platinum multi-function printer.

Wewt.

I've found this brand of wireless card to be VERY Linux-friendly. Maybe due to the Atheros chips they use.

   Excellent - I'm currently using an older Epson Stylus Color 740 with Linux, and it's nice to know that we'll be seeing new models with Linux support out of the box.
