Linux friendly local ISP?

[J. Eric Gilliland]

Hello All,

Glad to see the list back up.  Thanks Mike!

Can anyone recommend a linux friendly dial up ISP.  I
would prefer a local one, but would use a nationwide
if necessary.  I am using CDINC.NET now and I'm not
very  happy with them.  I am in Prairie Village, KS. 
I want one that does not use web-based email,  so that
I can start using kmail.

ANother question.  This is a little off topic, but
what the heck.  Since I moved into the house I just
bought in Prairie Village, my modem will only connect
at 28.8k.  I have the old style telephone jacks that
are little boxes that stick out.  Is the slow modem
connection a result of having old telephone wires or
what?  The house was built in 1953 and I'm fairly sure
they are original.  ANy ideas?  I have also screwed up
my modem settings in linux and cannot dial up in
linux, but I think I have instructions on how to fix
that.  I'll wirte again if I need help on that.

Everyone have a good week.

Eric Gilliland
