Hi guys, Im running 7.1 prof and Xfree 4 . When ever i use a program that uses mesa it uses the software driver and not my voodoo2. When i setup my graphics using yast2 i told it to load the 3d stuff for my voodoo2 card but it doesn't seem to be working properly. If I do a 3dinfo i get 3Dfx Interactive, Inc. 3Dfx 3Dfx Voodoo2 (121a@0002):4::16::::dev3dfx,mesa3dfx,glide_v2:switch2mesa3dfx What am I doing wrong? Cheers, Glenn ps luv 7.1 :)

Rumors are that HP doesn't want to threaten their 'microsoft-alliance' by either aggressively marketing openmail or releasing it as opensource. There are other reason's why they don't want to release it to the opensource community which you'll find in any of the articles you come across. What it comes down to is this, the program is being pulled, and existing customers will have 5 years of support/patches at which point they'll will be on their own. -- S.Toms - tomas@primenet.com - www.primenet.com/~tomas SuSE Linux v7.0+ - Kernel 2.2.18 Osborn's Law: Variables won't; constants aren't.

Personally, I would use it if I wasn't planning on any major OS upgrades in the future. What worries me most is that with MS controlling the OS itself, what's to stop them in making it incompatible in the next MS 2000 service pack, then saying, "But we had to incorporate Outlook into the OS so you would be forced to use our exchange software to access your mail." Or some such shit. -- S.Toms - tomas@primenet.com - www.primenet.com/~tomas SuSE Linux v7.0+ - Kernel 2.2.18 Why can't you be a non-conformist like everyone else?

But either version, cleint or server is accessible by the others server or client. That's how I read it, in reference to the licensing fee.
