I don't know about any controller software for linux (it might well exist), but I think the software you can use will depend on what receiver you have. I haven't had much experience of these things (though I've read a lot), so I don't know how powerful these programs can be. There's a whole stack of stuff on the net about satellites and such. I learned all I know from the net. Would like a dish to pay with, shame about the expense. Geoff. -- Geoff Shang ICQ number 43634701
