if you install it your modem will not work, network cards
If I where you I would wait a couple of weeks for the full tested version

I got a line installed, and the modem they sent was a Motorola Surfboard SB4100. I am using it under windows at the minute using a USB connection.

But not sure what to go for, Not fussed on paying for SuSe, since i have a fast enough connection to download any distro i want, any ideas,suggestions? > >Looking for somthing that is fairly easy to setup, initially, without much problems > >Phil Deane >http://www.MiracleExpress.force9.co.uk > > > >Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com
