This is one solid reason why I would prefer a Doubletalk. I don't know 
enough about Linux to know what the Doubletalk would need under Linux, 
but the Doubletalk needs no drivers whatsoever under DOS (and in a DOS 
VDM under OS/2). It is simply addressed as LPT3. End of configuration. 
Simple and tidy. Also much more affordable.
