Pine was indeed dropped from Red Hat as of Fedora Core 1.

Jungmee hasn't actually clarified yet whether it's a modem issue or an
ethernet one, nor the nature of the problem beyond "can't access the
Internet".

But yes:  Every time I need reliable connectivity from a laptop, I just
get a surplus PCMCIA modem or network card (or combo).  Any old 3Com is
perfect.

In case it helps, touchpads are almost always straight, two-button PS/2
devices, in my experience (as to both interface and protocol).  Again,
Jungmee wasn't really a pargon of clarity about the symptom details
("touchpad doesn't work under Linux").
