    I took the liberty of setting up a mirror (Southeast USA) before the sites get slashdotted. Hopefully you guys won't slashdot mine too heh. Here's the link: Terminus Demo for Linux

    Playing with the mouse sensitivity setting didn't help; the mouse is jumpy and erratic. The game overall is not smooth. If this is anything like the final version will be, I'm not buying it. I tried it on two Pentium II class systems, each with over 100M ram and running nothing but X. One had a Mach64 video card, and the other a Trident975. I suppose its *possible* the video card is at fault, but why would that affect the mouse?

    Has anyone got this working on a Matrox G400?
    Hi... I developed using the G400, so yes it works! It says you need XFree 4.0 on the web page because you really really really need XFree 4.0... Why would we lie about that?

    At the time we tried it, the worst sin of utah-glx was the fact that glIsTexture() was not even implemented! And worse, whenever someone pointed that out, the response was basically ``yeah, we know...'' So... DRI.

    I'm using XFree 4.0 on both my boxen right now, and it seems rock solid. And runs Terminus very nicely on my G400.

    ftp://ftp.maximumlinux.com/ TerminusDemoLinuxFull.tar.gz to get straight to the file; the article poster got the first 2 links wrong :) And that's http://www.maximumlinux.com/ for the homepage, not http://ftp.maximumlinux.com/ ;-)
