I believe someone mentioned a way to restart some tasks in 9.x sans reboot - may have been a variant of ALT + [??].
I note Doze performing as expected: indeterminate. I rarely have printer on. Sometimes it can be powered up while Doze is running and still be recognized; other times - not. This is straight LPT-1 printer connection via Doze spooler, however config by Canon 1000 driver. 98SE-light and with no network connections even configured. 192 MB, P-III 600MHz e-Machine, though can't see that matters.
Don't know, of course - which task happens to run/not-run, as determines the printer outcome. Hmmm.. should get out the Rixtools and inventory tasks sometime; I suppose that some of the names might even be decipherable - though that wouldn't tell me how to restart one in 9.x - if you even can, by name.
Thanks,
Ashton
