Yeah, more than okay, but do you mind if I have a little think for a
night? The reason is that I'm interested in getting Libranet.  Has anyone
got any experience of this dis?  It sounds perfect to me:  Debian 2.2 plus
ReiserFS, XFree 4.0.2 and KDE 2.1.

I've found SuSE 7.1 to be really buggy at the very least: that stupid
sendmail problem, this KDE thing (okay that's not 7.1's fault), and when I
try to use FTP it's erratic to say the least.  It reminds me of
something... easy install, very "user-friendly", bloated, and then all
manner of problems when you try running it.  Oh what is that OS?  It's
shame 'cause before this I was using 6.2 which was solid as a rock - but I
needed USB.  And I don't know enough (okay, anuthing) about Linux to put
it right.

Thanks Richard, I'll be in touch
