Does that simply mean that they won't support your Linux box and you're mostly on your own? If so, I wouldn't mind so much, especially if their equipment is simply like a NOW's cable modem that plugs into a standard Ethernet card and employs standard protocols, e.g., DHCP. I'm running FreeBSD, and it was a no-brainer to set up. OS/2 had issues identifying the right interface but I eventually managed to sort that out. OTOH, if Dream's access equipment is one o' those evil USB-based devices, then, Houston, we have a problem. Mabuhay. _ Philippine Linux Users Group.
