  i've been following this thread and i still have no luck configuring
my samsung multifunction scx-4826fn.  colin refers to installing some
of the files "by hand", but if i download the samsung unified driver
and smart panel app, why should i be doing any config by hand instead
of running smart panel?

  so i'm still looking for the right recipe.  this printer configured
and ran nicely under f10, so if anyone has a series of steps i can
try, i'd be ever so grateful.  i'm more than happy to test whatever
someone asks me to test.
