Linux-friendly ISPs?

Earthlink.net has been providing me with DSL connectivity via my RH9
based firewall for quite some time now. Their main pages are not Linux
friendly and officially they do not support Linux. However, it did not
take much effort to make Linux work and many of the staff use Linux
themselves. They are "officially Linux phobic." However, they do not
do anything active to prohibit Linux. So in practice they are not
Linux phobic except for customer support. This means we do have some
of the benefits of a large ISP that do not exist with small ISPs that
are more Linux friendly.
