It's not 3DNow! capable unless it's a k6-2 266. Don't know if 3DNow! is going to help with this setup though. I managed to get it to run on a Celeron 450 Mhz with a Voodoo 1 just now, now I gotta try find some servers. Of course it ain't all that pretty on this graphics card but it's enough to tide me over. What's with all the jumping pads heh.. felt like super mario for a sec
Michiel Would you like to restart the computer now?
Quit beating around the bush. The issue is really quite simple. You have guns, you have violence. Most of the rest of the western world has no guns and a LOT less violence. You say they could have done this through countless other means, but the fact it that they did not, and that noone else has lately, not in other parts of the world. Pipe bombs can be made anywhere, why do these tragedies seem to be confined to the US only? Think man, think. I know well the thrill of firing a loaded weapon (sport shooting club during my student days). But it's not worth it. Michiel Denie!

I agree that gun control in the US just isn't going to work. Through years of liberal arms policies, the country is now so poisoned with so many guns that it is going to take at least 400 years before they'll be halfway filtered out again through repossession and rust. It's not a serious option anymore, the country has gone beyond the point of no return. I've heard all the arguments from Ben Hur and his friends, but make no mistakes.. the easy availability of guns is what caused this, not the games or the movies or the drugs. Here in Amsterdam we have plenty of games and movies and drugs, but somehow we don't seem to get massacres like these. Michiel Denie!
Hi, I saw a prototype of a device like this at a stand at this year's Cebit. The stand was from some German university, I forgot which one unfortunately. The demonstration display was limited to 640x480 pixels and it was also about 12 inches in size. Two eyetrackers at the top of the display note the position of your eyes. The display's columns have two sides that are at an angle, these are rotated so that both eyes see a different side of the column.
I was underwhelmed by the effect at first when the demonstrator was just showing rotating cubes and other geometric shapes but later he put on a simple 3d landscape built out of some iso-lines (not solid) and there the effect of zooming in and out and circling around was quite impressive.
One disadvantage is of course that only one person can use it at any one time.
What worked for me on 5.2: Get all update rpms for your CPU from the 5.2 updates directory and also get the kernel-2.2 directory from there. Contrary to what the name says this does not (did not?) contain actual kernel rpms but other rpms that are required for 2.2 on RedHat.
Then, download a regular kernel-2.2.1.tar.gz (or bzip) from a place like ftp.kernel.org. Rm/usr/src/linux (it's just a link to/usr/src/linux-2.0.36) and extract the kernel tar file to/usr/src. It will extract to plain 'linux', so after extraction mv it to/usr/src/linux-2.2.1 and make a link (ln -s/usr/src/linux-2.2.1/usr/src/linux). Then you can go into the dir and make your config as usual.
Note the file/usr/src/linux/Documentation/Changes, it has an extensive list of minimum version numbers of all sorts of support files that you need. If you've gotten all the update rpms from the Red Hat site your Linux system will be almost completely up to the requirements listed. The 2 or 3 minor differences don't seem to hinder my system.
Don't forget to put the zImage in the right place and to rerun lilo after you compile your kernel. Then have a look at the file/lib/modules/2.0.36-3/.rhkvmtag and make a similar one in/lib/modules/2.2.1. Use something like 'strings/usr/src/linux/vmlinux | grep "Linux version"' to get the proper text. Now you should be ready to go..

Any theories out there?
