I tried going to the site, and Netscape loaded everything fine. It was
very slow however, Netscape is always slow it seems. I had troubles loading
Netscape off the CD (I was a beginner then) so I went and got Netscape
from their Home Page and used their instuctions and everything worked fine,
altho' it took me a week to get my mail from my ISP because I didn't have
everything just right.

I just got a copy of SuSE and I must admit it is very good. Couldn't get
suseppp to work, so I finally forced myself into giving up and just
manually doing ppp with SuSE's little add-on dialog-box thing (via YaST).
The real problem I've been having though, is that even if I use the exact
same version and configuration for LILO as I did to do LILO under
Slackware, it works under Slackware and not SuSE. Odd, considering, the
exact same file lilo.conf just copied over. If I use linear (under SuSE)
it just gives me an L on boot, if not, LI. I have read through LILO
documentation, know what these messages mean, and am still confounded
because I just can't get it working!

Is this on the same partition or drive as sw? I had rh 4.2 installed on
my machine before suse, and it caused these sort ofproblems until i was
tired of it and formatted the partition, and reinstalled suse.

Do you need to use linear? I just looked at the yast help, and it said
that it's faster (which i have found to usually be better) to not use
the linear option.

This might be not *THE* official source, but it provides some info. You
can register your Linux box there. See:

/counter.li.org>
They provided some sort of statistics when I visited the site some month
ago.

In a recent article in one of the major industry rags, the fiture listed
is 100 0rowth for Linux, which MickySoft can't claim!
