- howdy folks,
-
- well, i've recently tried a few things that have made me even more
- happy about executor.
-
- the SVGA ELF version i tried works with the new SVGA lib. i'm running
- 1.2.11, ELF, ELF compiled SVGA libs (1.2.7), with an STB Powergraph 64
- card (S3 based, Trio64 chipset).
-
- none of the a.out programs i have work with the new lib. however, and
- this seems a bit odd, ld (or is it ldd?), is able to deal with the two
- versions. i have the old libvga.so.1 in /usr/local/lib and i put the
- new stuff in /usr/lib. this seems to work ok.
-
- the major problem i have now is that the console is unusable after
- using executor-svga. the screen is completely messed up and the only
- way i can get it back is by rebooting, not my favorite thing to do
- frequently. i'm also running SVGATextMode to get a better display on
- the console so perhaps this is a problem...
-
- in other news, 1.99p seems great. it remembers what windows were open
- after i launch an app and remembers things i add to the hot band as
- well. these are both great improvements. i'm not sure if this is
- just me, but it also seems to run a bit faster now.
-
- anyway, this is just great for me. i'm looking forward to pounding
- out my second publication using Word under executor, hopefully in the
- next month!
-
- hope things are going ok for you folks at ardi,
