Nah Myles, I wasn't trolling for flames. And I was talking Linux.

As for Win2000, I just mentioned it doesn't crash for me. I have no great love for 
Microsoft.

Yes I read the info with the distros, yes I took my time. Yes I did edited 
/etc/rc.d/modules under 
Slackware.  I do support Linux, and I don't see anything wrong with pointing out stuff 
on it that 
doesn't work well or to my expectations.

Yes KDE would hang up particularly under Slackware. Total hangs killing the mouse and 
keyboard. So I ran xf86config to see if that's what was causing it.

As for the NIC, Caldera with the 2.4.x kernel gives the error " garbage in the relay 
string". Suse 
gives a timeout error during dhcp and Slackware just sits for a bit, then goes on to 
X, with DHCP 
not working. Only with the 2.4.x kernels.

Hardware on all three machines is fine. And I do know what I'm doing, and I read most 
everything. The problem is in the distros. I'll keep messing with them.

Like I said, I wasn't trolling, just pointing stuff out. I still use Caldera 2.4, and 
everything works.

Eddie
