Refresher: Myob11 wouldn't work using Fedora 6, just real buggy, tended to
crash, anything deeper than top-level window stuff wouldn't print.  Windows
with tabs would not usually allow selecting the tabs, etc...  Fedora 8 came
along, I upgraded as the F8 fanclub was making out F8 being the next best thing
to invention of the wheel.  I tried Myob11 on it and it worked!  I was able to
install all the old data from the windows system.  We were able to input
receivables, create invoices, print stuff, do the bank stuff, tax stuff, etc...
 The accountant was using it and happy.  This honeymoon lasted about 1 month. 
Then... First-off it wouldn't print Invoices, just a blank page, I thought I
had a bad printer.  Then I realized there were other issues with the tabs on
some windows didn't work.  Some of the bank info wasn't accessible.  The
accountant now refuses to use Linux for anything but letters, email and
solitaire.  I told her tough, get used to Linux because this place isn't going
back to M$, period.  I've installed several other accounting programs made for
Linux, but she still hasn't decided to take the effort to learn them, she's
holding out for MYOB.  I'm not set up for, nor do I understand how to do
regression testing.  Wouldn't know what to do if I found something, either.  I
really don't care how much trouble Linux is or how little how understand
it...there is no way in hell we are going back to M$, even if we have to send
all our accounting out to a service.

So, yeah, it sure would be nice if you geniuses could figure out why it
wouldn't then why it did and then why it won't work anymore!!

If it makes a difference, we use a network printer, hp L7780.  System that
needs to use MYOB is running Mepis 7 and system used for testing various new
software from repos is running Lenny.
