instead of photoshop try using "gimp" it comes with the distrobution (if you installed it). I have found using it better than photoshop. There is a whole bunch of programs like dreamweaver for linux too.... other will be able to tell you some.
Now... your modem.... open up a console... and type "su -" and then type your root password. You will now be logged in as root. Then type "setup" and go down to "network configuration". Then it will ask you some questions aboul your network... answer them and it wil probe for your network card and hopefully find it. if not... then come back here

Don't lie. Of course, he's probably just some wanabee webdesigner, so Quanta Plus or Bluefish would do some good to him.

Dreamweaver is for posers who don't know html.  Quanta plus should suit anyone's needs.

I wouldn't say that exactly, but, if you're planning on using it, you should already know HTML, and thus would have no problems using Quanta Plus/Vim/Bluefish/Screem/whatever.

if you want to use windows programs then for fucks sake use windows.

There are better alternatives out there.

If you want to switch then do it properly

hehehe, although it seems i went a bit over the top in the last few posts dont get the impression that i dont support you and your attemps and efforts to use linux and rid yourself of the scourge that is Microsoft.


I just dont see the point in changing to linux, and using windows shit.

ask around for alternatives, you should find them, open source developers produce quite a wad of marvellous software.
