Hi, all.
The person I sent the last message from has another question: How do you
install the framebuffer service and configure X to use it? TIA for any help

I just recently got this message. Any help would be greatly appreciated and

Hi, all. I'm having a problem configuring my Linksys router for Linux. The
manual says you're supposed to be able to access the router at 192.168.1.1,
but I can't get at it from there. Whenever I route my computer through the
router, it just kills my internet connection (Comcast cable).
