Hi everyone

It's now into the third week of trying to get a satellite link working with 
BorderNet :-( I know they have had issues with taking over all of Westnet's 
satellite customers, but even a used car salesman provides better phone 
support! Fortunately I have managed to contact one of their techs through 
Whirlpool, and he has been enormously helpful working through issues with the 
different receiver cards.

I have been through the hoops with different hardware to work with Debian 
stable - both PentaValue and Broadlogics card (binary) drivers have issues, 
but source for the SkyMedia card driver is available so hopefully that will 
work (when I get it to compile :-)

Only trouble is, I don't have a SkyMedia 200D card! Does anyone know either a 
local supplier or happen to have one lying around after switching to ADSL 
which they would be prepared to sell? I missed out on one on ebay yesterday, 
I got outbid (outbidded?) at the last minute.

Steve
