For me, it's Shared GPU memory.

Printing and scanning. I only print like one thing every couple months and scan things every 6 months, but a backlog is growing. My printer is over 10 years old but it worked well on Windows. Despite their site saying it supports Linux I just can't get it to print or acknowledge any data is being sent. I'm contemplating a newer printer since deals are going on right now.
Update: Woooo! After a few weeks of fiddling with the install scripts and CUPS config I got something to print via Linux! That being said I'm upgrading, not giving up, to a new EcoTank printer.
I've had very good luck with my HP Smart Tank printer. It just works, in both Debian and Fedora distros. Gets automatically configured, and both printing and scanning work flawlessly. Arch based distros are another story :-(
