I know, and he is happy to hear that, and is looking forward to also 
trying out all the games.  His other interest is music, but he can get his 
own playmidi directly from Redhat 6.2.  And all the programs he already 
compiled will work with BL2.  A match made in heaven.  He says he can 
switch over once he gets the hang of slackware.

He does not want an ethernet card, but maybe this will get him interested.
Will matanza work over nullmodem cable?
