Currently I installed Linux because of its excellent isdn4linux Teles driver (including X75 modem emulation). But apart of that I don't like Linux so much. So I do hope I can have the same under *BSD soon. I could give it a try myself (the modem emulation) by copying it from isdn4linux. g> Life is tough.

Apart from that, BSD works better; contrary to popular believe, it's interactive response is clearly better than Linux on my hardware! -- Peter Mutsaers | Abcoude (Utrecht), plm@xs4all.nl | the Netherlands
