Hi, I've been using Pegasus Direct satellite internet for a few months now. As far as I know it doesn't support linux either. I have 3 computers networked together and receive the satellite transmissions on one with an AMD Athlon 1.4G processor. The others, one similar to the first dual boots to RH7.2 and win98. The 2nd is an old IBM Aptiva 486 boosted to 100. Without any manual configuration they receive and send using the satellite. Only the one with the direct connection to the satellite receiver gets the full speed of the satellite. The others receive at 20K or so.
Planned on using the 486 for a firewall, but I can't find a 16 bit network card that is 10/100 only 10. I didn't know whether that would slow things down too much or not so haven't tried to setup the satellite receiver on it yet. All 3 computers dual boot with RH7.2 and win98se.
