I love the idea of the connected DVD player but my home network is all
linux based. Can anyone tell me if I can use the Gateway connected DVD
player in a Linux network?

Thanks,

Ray

I've been looking at that too. Anyone know if it can access internet radio
stations of any kind?

I would *guess* that since you can export linux drives with smb that can be
seen by windows, the gateway box would be able to see them too. But sorry
that I don't have a real answer.

I *think* that you have to use special "server" software on the PC but
I'm not sure.

The manual is on the gateway site as a PDF. It does seem that you need
server software that doesn't specify linux support.
