I'm still waiting for my 15ukp offer to arrive but in the mean time I installed 6.4 off a PC magazine (DVD version). Despite selecting UK and English for everything I still get the German Version of Star Office on the screen. How do I remove/correct this? Having had )almost) no trouble installing LINUX on laptops and desktops I had a really difficult time - A Diamond A55 S3 Trio3D/2X card would not work (despite it appearing in the list of chip sets) failing to give a hardware cursor and proving obstinate at anything but a limited 800x600 SVGA output. In the end I gave up and put in an S3 Virge (you may gather from this that I don't pay more than 20ukp for a graphics card...15ukp if I can manager it!) BTW - What is an AGX supposed to be for? I also couldn't get the ISA Crystal Sound card to work - although a Creatibve PCI one worked fine - and it also picked up my cheap 8139 100/10 Ethernet card - so there was some good news. Getting carried away I noted that SUSE6.3 book said there was support for bttv848 Television card - which I happened to have. The update file referred to - wasn't there and despite uncommenting the lines in the hardware start up - it doesn't seem to see it or do anything. Is there an application? Where? -- Alan Davies Head of Computing Birkenhead School

Sorry: we've been slow because of the massive work involved in the Expo and conference which was on just when your order hit us...

I don't know anything about this card: maybe someone else in the office can comment ... -- Roger Whittaker SuSE Linux Ltd The Kinetic Centre Theobald Street Borehamwood Herts WD6 4PJ ---------------------- 020 8387 1482 ---------------------- roger@suse-linux.co.uk ----------------------
