I think there's a bit of a misapplied word (is that even acceptable 
English?).  It sounds to me like you have Linux WORKING, just not 
completely configured for your environment.  No OS is going to be 
exactly how you want it out of the box, Linux maybe less so than others.

So, the issue isn't why is Linux not working, so much as what can I do 
to get it configured the way I need it to work.

On the home network thing, what exactly do you need a way to browse the 
Windows machines on your network?I have mine setup, but I tell you, I 
never use it.  Granted, I'm more of a keyboard monkey, but virtually 
every method of file access I need between windows and linux is done 
with a CLI, even if it's wrapped inside a GUI.
