Hmm that's unfortunate :( Anywho, at the moment if both gpl and fglrx would work with 3D with your card, it will prefer the gpl one. I did this only because there's one machine I have tested on (remotely), the fglrx seems unstable and buggy. But indeed fglrx yields a better frame rate. Any suggestions from any ATI experts would be much appreciate :) > - - eth1 didn't get a IP addresse via DHCP (eth0 doesn't exist...), an > ifup eth1 fixed that I ended up putting this as a known issue in the README.

In FGRUN you can select the input, and I've made it so the default is keyboard. If that doesn't help, this is a hard one know what's going on unless I'm at the machine and figure things out. > - - I couldn't get a multiplayer connection. No errors were reported though. The default "in" ip is set to localhost, and if you're behind a NAT, at the moment you'll have to manually change that to your IP.

I need look at this further. This was added as a known issue in the README since the first release. > Something to consider: > > The current windowsmanager is totally unintuitive for windows users.

I think I will make another window manager to be the default, and leave fluxbox as an alternative. Thanks for the feedback.
