- Sorry to bother everyone, but I am trying to get Linux and X going
- on my system. The problem is how to get the software. I wish to avoid
- paying for the package by ordering it from a company (Softland??) and while
- I can ftp the files to my University workstation quite quickly, it will take
- me at least 70 hours to get the SLS distribution accross my 2400 baud modem.
-
- It would be wonderfull if I could find someone in the Columbus, Ohio
- area who was willing to help me out. I'll pay a (reasonable) fee for your
- time and trouble if you're willing.
-
- Thanks to anyone who can help!
