Sympatico high speed

2001-10-24 Thread Daniel Benham

Is anyone in southern Ontario using Bell Sympatico high speed?
They have a six month introductory special and I was thinking of trying it 
but wondered if there were any gotchas in getting it to work with linux. They 
say it will work but don't offer support if you're not using windows. Any 
feedback gratefully accepted.

If you want a free and easy time sync for windows look at "sync it with atom"
Works like a charm in the background whenever you're logged on.

Running LimeWire 1.6b here and everythings fine. Get a string of font errors 
on startup but it has no adverse affect. Tried Napshare but it wouldn't 
behave - forget now but I think it wouldn't build properly. Just looked and I 
started with Newtella but never finished cause LimeWire was working fine so I 
ran with it.
