@all: I need to print to an old printer that has a Parallel Port only, so a friend lent me the above-mentioned adapter. Unfortunately he wasn't sure about which of the many old mains adapters he has in his giant spare parts box is the right one for this device . The device itself doesn't have any in...

@dreamer: ... of course sound is better without PulseAudio because the (lazy) middle-man is gone. (...) Having all the necessary components for a PulseAudio free experience is a worthy goal I think. antiX comes without PulseAudio, but the main difference between these platforms seems to be systemd-f...
