[vox-tech] your linux trouble since IF

[Jonathan Stickel]

Carl

Sorry to hear about your difficulties with Linux.  I remember you at the 
installfest in May.  It's really too bad your harddrive had problems, or 
we would have had your system further along and easier for you to work with.

You will probably get the most help, and learn the most, by coming to 
another installfest.  We _should_ be having one in August.

Alternatively, we can try to help via this mailing list if you want to 
work on one problem at a time.  First, let us know what system you have, 
whether the harddrive issue is solved, and what linux distribution you 
are using.  Then we can try to help you get that computer online.

Regards,
Jonathan
