Re: [SLE] Quake2 on 6.4 - Yast2



I did have a thought with this.... still along the lines of X rather
than sound - but when I installed 6.4 using yast, I ticked the 'use 3d
accelleration' button on the desktop settings - does this simply
change the settings in XF86Config, in which case I have overwritten
that many times and I can ignore it or does it set a flag somewhere
else that I can restore..

its only a thought ?
