Hi,

At the moment I am using a Gateway Solo 2500se and SuSE 6.2 works very
well on it.. I am using a Xircom 56k flex modem/Ethernet pcmcia card (Type
I). I had no problems installing and no problems to date with dialup or
connecting with the ethernet card..

BTW ( in relation to earlier thread ) this also has a NeoMagic card in it
and has given no problems...If the person who had the problem wants to
mail me (off list) I can send the config file if the problem is not
already fixed..

James
