Hi Richard,

It's just that I have a Wireless LAN at home (temporarily - it's for school
really). I can get the PCMCIA card to work with W2k - but no luck with SuSE
(yet).

Incidentally, I have had to fall back to using E-Smith for my schools
project. I was getting absolutely nowhere with SuSE. I'll be at the meeting
on Jan 5th - so perhaps some of you wizards can point me in the right
direction.

All the very best to you and yours for Christmas and 2002.

Alistair
