Yep. At my work i can telnet in. At home it's impossible. Maybe it's
easy to fix , but it's a bug. It's a bug, that is not fixed about one
year.

IMHO nv is to slow.But i can be wrong, because it was use it long time
ago.

ATI's native driver for linux is worse than nvidia's. it's 'writen on
the neck'.
