- I haven't had time to play with Executor too much until lately (I
- *love* spring break :), but I'm impressed with 1.99q12 for Linux... it's
- faster (seemingly) than before, and I even got sound to work :)
-
- I'm having problems with the temporary files again... I'm not sure
- what's going on (I'm using RedHat 2.1) - I'd like to try running Executor
- off of a HFV file or a Mac ZIP disk... a -usehfv option would be really cool
- under Linux.
-
- (I've reinstalled yet again lately to manage space better - this time,
- the /usr/local is in a partition with ~450MB total, and 28MB free...)
-
- I'll test a Mac ZIP disk soon - I wonder if the problems with Mac
- formatted media have to do with bad partition tables, since when I went in
- and looked there wasn't one! If that's the case, that could be the
- elusive bug...
-
- In addition, the ELF SVGAlib version still does not work under the
- latest kernels (I had to use a.out) - is this a SVGAlib bug? I'm hoping that
- there'll be a new DGA version, although that can wait for post-2.0 of course.
-
- I also got printing under Word 5.0 to work seemlessly on the first
- try! :) (Having a working lpd setup helped a lot - especially when wired
- to Ghostscript+real Adobe fonts)
-
- All in all, I'm hoping 2.0 will be finished soon... keep up the good
- work!
