No problems installing or running. The fibre is owned by our Public Utility District and individual ISPs can contact to use it. I have phone and ISP over it. TV is supposed to be coming. I'm presently on SUSE 10.2. My router connects to the fibre box on the outside of the house. I run Konqueror and Firefox as Browsers, GFTP for FTP. All worked out of the box. SUSE auto configure the network on install.
My ISp connects to Verizon for the phone. -- Russ Linux register user 441463 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
