Linux
Page
Linux is the fastest growing OS (Operating
System!). The recent dream of the dominant operating system is
"free" PC with every OS sold. A contrary vision of the future
with free choice and free of monopolies, every PC will come with a free
OS!
I
am a newbee in Linux and therefore I can not give any assurance
that my recommendations are correct. I simply tried to record
what worked for me, but I do not know if the same procedures will
work for you. At this time I have not had any feedback about
these notes so these notes may well contain errors. If you have any suggestions, corrections or
requests, please feel free
to contact me by email. My email address is at the bottom
of this section.
With this warning, here are the notes of
connecting SuSE Linux to TIP-BB (The Internet Project, Broad Band via
TransACT):

Every newbee needs
a guru. My guru is
Rainer Klein, who has generously given his time to introduce me to the
wonders of Linux. He has searched out some links for me to peruse. I
found a wealth of information there, so I am offering these links for
