Hy, I always make a home directory to stuff in things like Staroffice
and my schoolwork. In other words, stuff I am adding to the system
which i don't want to lose but I did this time, arggggggg
Also, I am setting up kppp dialer. It tells me the modem is busy and
that's all I get. Do you have any idea why?
adios, Steve W
