Somehow, in the RC, they managed to bork the HP fax driver.....error says they are missing. Worked fine in the Alpha's and the Beta, but now are messed up, so probably will continue to be borked in the Final. That's the only issue I have. That's with Kubuntu 64 bit version.

That sort of thing seems to fit better the Windows and Mac lands...
