    Very weird. Seems like they're taking the Apple route of trying to make things simpler. Not even enough buttons to even play Metroid Prime. I think I have a solution:

    This page is very helpful - how to install a binary version of mplayer in 32-bit mode that will use the 32-bit codecs. I've been running 32-bit mplayer on AMD64 for quite some time now and it plays .wmv files fine.

    Your suggestion then comes down to: it would be great to have a simpler, reliable X configuration tool with the X server.

    However, the distributions seem to have this covered already.

    Is there any need to spend time on it?

    When even Knoppix can't get a DVI-fed LCD monitor working above 1024x768; and the XF86config it produces bears no resemblance to a GTF-produced modeline for the exact same resolution and frequency? I'd say there might be some reason there.

    They don't have an official driver for that combination yet, but you can get an unofficial one that will build on AMD64 with a 2.6 kernel here. I'm currently using it for a Tyan s2885 and it works quite nicely. The performance isn't what I'd expect, but hopefully that will be fixed with the upcoming Detonator/Forceware 6xxx.

    Just in case the site gets /.'ed!

    Postal 2: Share the Pain demo for GNU/Linux (posted 2003-12-25 05:16:36 by icculus):

    Just in time to relieve all that Holiday stress, a demo version of Postal 2: Share the Pain is now available for GNU/Linux systems.

    "Share the Pain" adds multiplayer gametypes to the previously single-player only Postal 2, with its mature-rated attitude (Capture the Flag is called "Snatch", and involves stealing the other team's, uh, mascot...you get the point). The multiplayer gametypes are fully network compatible with the Windows players.

    The package contains a complete DEMO version of the game, featuring one abbreviated single player level, and a few multiplayer maps for your enjoyment. The full, commercial version of Postal 2 for Linux will be available soon (and rumor has it there will be a Linux boxed version, so please don't run out and buy the Windows version in preparation just yet). The package also contains the Linux dedicated server.

    Postal 2 has some rather explicit content. Don't download it if you're a small child or easily offended.
