 	Could well be; it was Debian, iirc, that I couldn't 
install because of driver problems. (I have a tiny 160 MB version 
of Debian, which worked on my friend's old small HP laptop and 
also on my T30 thinkpad; maybe I should get a bigger ...)

 	So what am I looking for in those places? I wouldn't''t 
know a driver if one bit me.

On the Internet, you can never tell who is a dog --
supposing you care -- but you can tell who has a mind.
