- I tried to install Executor Beta 1 with Caldera Network Desktop.
-
- Caldera uses Accelerated X as it's X Desktop. When I tried to run
- Executor, it crashed.
-
- I installed the ELF version of Executor. Should I have used a-out?
-
- What are the differences?
-
- What do I need to install to support my Soundblaster Card?
-
-
- Note to ARDI: In all of my time writing manuals, I have found it best to
- give a step-by-step install process, assuming absolutely NO knowledge from
- the user. You can include a "Quick-Start" chapter for advanced users.
-
- I had to try a few different things until I figured out that I needed to
- be logged into my Linux system as "ROOT" and on the hard drive to run the
- install. Installing from the CDROM gave an uninformative error. (Actually,
- I know about the "ROOT" thing from the start, but figuring out where I
- needed to be before running "install" took a leap of intuition.)
-
- It might be worthwhile investing $99.00 in a copy of Caldera for testing
- purposes. I told them about you, perhaps you can coax a developer copy out
- of them in exchange for an Executor Beta...
