No go on a 28.8 kb modem.  Surely it will be released on CD sometime, by
somebody?  I have no objection to paying for it.

I am puzzled by the lack of any interaction or error reports.  My system
is Gnome/Sawfish on vanilla Mandrake 8.1, no tweaks, low security.  Bash
for root, tcsh for user, Star Office 5.2 installed and working.  I wanted
to see what the alternative looked like.
