Hi Ian, O.K. Thanks for that. I will see if I make it to the Fix it tomorrow before taking you up on your offer of a snail mail 64 bit Ubuntu Disk. Even though this modem thing has been frustrating, we have had fun with Linux sofar, especially the games. My partner finds the version of Majong on Gnome better than her Windows games.

disk. I am not sure if I am going to be able to get transport to the fixit tomorrow.
I'm afraid I agree with Michael - your version of Fedora is too old, and as a Linux beginner you'll be making things much harder for yourself by not running an up-to-date version. Recent versions of the main distributions often include updated drivers that may work better with your hardware.
I'm sure someone on the list can supply you with the latest Fedora, and if not I'd be happy to snailmail you a 64bit Ubuntu DVD.
Keep us posted, and best of luck with your foray into Linux - it'll be worth it, honest!
Cheers, ian
