But I cannot fix it, I am not a programmer.  And I do love it.  You refer to 
linux users as if I am not one, but I am.  I am just still learning and 
saving for a linux compatible modem.

And they all stink!

Please so not take it personally, because it is not meant that way, but I 
detect (and I am not refering to anyone in particular, but to a general 
feeling) a shade of the old "I was into that band (OS, app, resturant, 
whatever) before it got popular." attitude.  I think some linux users DON'T 
want it to become more popular because it will no longer be "cool".  Any 
comments?
