help with many things



Help!!  I need some guidance  :)

1)  Does anyone know the e-mail address for Marek Powlowski?
    He wrote a shell script that looks like proline and I want
    it for my unix bbs.

2)  I recently dumped my //e and got a //gs.  I have a ramfast
    Rev C card for my harddrive but lost my manual when I last
    moved.  Can anyone e-mail me what all the dip switches do?
    I know I need to flip at least one to switch it from //e to
    //gs mode but I dont know which one.

3)  Where is the cheapest place to get a replacement battery for
    a //gs?

4)  Why does my mockingboard C not want to work in slot four?
    I have no other cards in the system and I do set the setup
    to say "slot four your card"  The card will work in slot 2
    and 7 but only if you run the mconfig program that comes with
    with mockingboard when you buy it.  The computer locks up when
    I try to activate the mockingboard in any slot with ultima three
    or ultima four when I turn on the music.  All other mockingboard
    games lock up the computer too.  HELP  (this thing worked great
    in my //e....but I just donated that to the local elementary school)

5)  Why cant I use my imagewriter II printer with my 386?  I hook it upto
    the com port but none of my programs under dos want to acknowledge it
    exists.  Under linux   "echo test > /dev/ttyS0" yields nothing yet the
    printer works great under the apple.  I have tried all different kinds
    of baud rates under linux by doing "xc -l /dev/ttyS0" and typing things
    in in terminal mode to see if it would print any of it.  Help 
    (the manual for this printer is almost worthless  :-)

Any help for any of the above problems would be GREATLY appreciated!!
                                                                   \/
