Wow.  Thanks, Joseph!  I already have a Puppy download so
I'll burn that, and I'm downloading dyne:bolic.  My
"customer" is mainly interested in Internet radio, so
multimedia emphasis sounds hopeful.  (But dyne:bolic is
also about *creating* multimedia content.  Cool.)

I've tried a few of the others but may plug them in again
to review why I rejected them.

Rather than trying downloading drivers etc. I will first
see if a more friendly distro is the answer.  I'll also
try a new CentOS that I happen to have.  That's what I
use on my modern home and office machines, but I doubt
it's as good for the old stuff.

But I guess it's also time for me to learn about Universe
and Multiverse, and learn how to configure different
repositories for Debian.

Thanks again,

Vic
