Larry...John...Lonny and others,
I've done it! I managed to get Linux-2.4-test9 to compile and work! It's
running at the moment and it took a few times round and round to get
TCP/IP and PPP to work, but by God it's working. Now I'm curious to see if
I can get this Turtle Beach sound card working on here which was the
original reason I started on this adventure in the first place.
