Greetings!
Sounds good... :) So it can be done! Great! It is a lot moe to put
kde on the system though... (resources wise). Managed to get Ubuntu going
again (without full format)... using "linux noapic nolapic"... but still
don't mind to give SuSE a go, and see how it does with the hardware... etc.
May do better with GUI dial-up also... (still haven't figured/configured
that one, successfully, in Ubuntu). :$ Anyway, thanks for the help. Wishing
well, always...
