Hello,


Can You please help me?

i updated all of our computer to Debian 8 jessie

hardware
     1. 64 bit Intel ( noname ) 4 GB-RAM         .. o.k.
     2. apple powerbook ( 2004 ) 2 GB RAM    .. no sound
     3. apple iMac ( 2010 ) 8 GB RAM              ..  o.k.

i installed on all these 'xfce'  this runs ok
as I see, here in list, some problems are solved if switched to gnome ?


Other Probs i have

WIFI HP Officejet 7500   driver hp-officejet_7500_e910
prints fine, but i can not scan...   xscanimage shows " wrong argument" 
I did not know what this mean or
what i should do...

in one of the computers i like to install grup to the second hd 
/dev/sdb, because the /dev/sda is has errors and i like to
replace it, therefore i need to boot from the /dev/sdb2.


i have to external firewire drives connected to the iMac
i can access drives manualy but i like to do this have automatic during 
boot process...
i think i have to add
UUID                         /mnt/dsk1                     defaults     
            1             1
UUID                         /mnt/dsk2                     defaults     
            1             1
but, i like to be sure and what happens if one or both of the hds are 
not connected?

Just one other more...

i like to have a Notebook 17" for Debian/GNU two
must run windows ( Band in a Box and Sibelius ) but mostly ( > 95% ) run 
Debian/GNU Linux jessie
I am not familar with hardware
Budget is  € 820,- maximal...
need 17" because I need the nb on stage for Sheets ( some double - pages )
I think about 'Lenevo'  or 'asus' what would You prefer?

Thanks for Help,
best regards,
  Peter
p.s. sorry, my english is terrific... ;)
