my gateway shipped w/ a Diamond Viper PCI.  i had to run the "vprmode VESA"
command to get supposedly VESA compliance.

could this cause the problems that people have been seeing?

If you're a horse, and someone gets on you, and falls off, and then gets right
back on you, I think you should buck him off right away.

Just a note that the problem doesn't occur with my ATI PCI Mach 64, at least
with current drivers. If you haven't upgraded drivers in awhile, perhaps
you should try that.

Subject: Bug Reporting program for Linux users
Sender: [e-mail]

Hi Folks,

If you have a Linux or other UNIX system that can send e-mail to
ardi.com, you should look at the file
ftp.cs.unm.edu:/pub/ardi/Executor_Linux/send-pr.tar.gz (remember to
use BINARY mode to pick this up).  It includes a distribution of
"send-pr", a program that can be used to send nicely formatted bug
reports to us.  It's easy to use and it saves us time -- time which
can be better spent fixing bugs than reformatting bug reports.

There's no requirement that you use send-pr to give us information;
we'll still take bug reports sent to "[e-mail]" if something
prevents you from using send-pr.

NEXTSTEP users don't need to use send-pr, because the "Bug Report..."
menu item in Executor/NEXTSTEP automatically does the formatting that
send-pr uses.

I'm currently using Executor/DOS 1.99h. However, there are several programs I
want to run but can't. I have been told it is due to an error with the DOS
extender. I was also told that the LINUX version of Executor can run these
programs.

I know where to get Executor/LINUX, but I don't know whereto get LINUX. I have
tried to get it before, but it simply takes too much time and I couldn't figure
out what to get.

My point is is there anyone who knows of a place that sells an Executor
"friendly" distribution of LINUX on disk or CD-ROM. Also will Executor/LINUX
work with an XWindows program that runs under DOS like XAPPEAL.

Thanks in advance-
Mike Lewis

I've been wanting to know how one would go about using a series of mac
disk images and extracting the needed programs from them with executor/linux.

In addition, I was wondering about how to successfully print with executor/linux,
as I'm still unable to do it with microsoft word for the mac..

Cheers,
