    Yo;
    I've got Starband's basic satellite internet package/modem/dish/whatever.  The
    don't officially support Linux with this hardware and have taken great pains
    to create their own protocal to make sure that you have to have a Windows
    boxconnected to their modem.  Neway, anybody know of an open-source hack
    that'll let me use this modem from Linux and trash my old Windows router?
               Thanx,
                    ES

Not that you care, but this message was sent from a 750MHz Athlon system 
running SuSE Linux 9.1 (Kernal 2.6.5) and KMail 1.62.  I aslo run Red Hat 
Linux 8.0 (Kernal 2.4.18), Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 (Kernal 2.2.20), Mandrake 
Linux 9.2 (Kernal 2.4.22), and YellowDog Linux 3.0 (Kernal 2.4.20) on various 
systems and architectures for various reasons.  Yeah, and there's a old Mac 
OS in there somewhere that I use as a bootloader for Linux, and a Windows XP 
box used as a router for my Linux-based network, but they don't count, 'cuz 
they aren't "real" OS's.  Who me? Biased? Nah!
"Failure is not an option with Microsoft; it's bundled with the software!"
Not only am I a Linux freak, Mac-lover, and Microsoft-hater, but I'm a 
Christian as well.  To risk using an un-meaningful cliche:  Jesus has changed 
my life for the better!  He's my best friend and talking to Him and knowing 
that He's helping me is what lets me deal with stress with ease.  I'm not 
happy-go lucky, I just know that with God's help I can handle it.
	My faith is based on facts too.  Don't believe me?  Go to
