    <desc>Gonilnik za strojno opremo/napravo omogoča računalniku, da uporabi naprave, ki so nanj priklopljene</desc>

<title>Kaj je gonilnik?</title>

<p>Naprave so fizični "deli" računalnika. Lahko so <em>zunanje</em> kot tiskalniki in monitor ali <em>notranje</em> kot grafične in zvočne kartice.</p>

<p>Da bi vaš računalnik lahko te naprave uporabljal, mora vedeti, kako se z njimi sporazumevati. To stori program, ki se imenuje <em>gonilnik naprav</em>.</p>

<p>When you attach a device to your computer, you must have the correct driver
installed for that device to work. For example, if you plug in a printer but
the correct driver is not available, you will not be able to use the printer.
Normally, each model of device uses a driver that is not compatible with any
other model.</p>

<p>Na Linuxu so gonilniki za večino naprav že privzeto nameščeni, zato bi moralo vse delovati, ko napravo priklopite. Obstaja pa tudi možnost, da boste morali gonilnik namestiti ročno ali pa da sploh ni na voljo.</p>

<p>In addition, some existing drivers are incomplete or partially
non-functional. For example, you might find that your printer cannot do
double-sided printing, but is otherwise completely functional.</p>
