Luckily for you, people more savvy than me picked this one up. But, for the record, I'm now running my "travel" laptop with _all_ native Linux apps off a free(ish) Mandrake (9.0) disk that came with a magazine. The only exception being the very lovely Bat! I've got dial-up, stand-by/hibernation, sound & graphics as well as digital camera support! This is more for fun than anything, as I've licensed (i.e. paid for) WinXP and OfficeXP which to be honest is about as good a package as you're going to get right now.
