using you guessed it Outlook ExMess( one of the reasons I miss being on either
VAX/VMS or Unix at an institution). I'm sending it again in (however falsely it
tries) plain text format. Didn't know that it was defaulting to, god knows, html
format. If this doesn't fly, please let me know and I'll try to send from a unix
station at my institution.+ADw-BR+AD4APA-BR+AD4APA-/DIV+AD4APA-/FONT+AD4-

to see that there is a distribution list for beginners on using Mandrake, and
perhaps for those who are as well considering its purchase.+ADw-/FONT+AD4APA-/DIV+AD4-

compatibility lists...I notices several in the section for sound cards for
Turtle Beach (Monterrey, etc.) except for the Turtle Beach Montego, a rather
widely distributed card with Dell PCs. My question is, is the Montego close
enough in architecture to any of the other 2-3 TB cards mentioned in the list.
If so, how might I go about making sure that it is recognized by the OS and
configured correctly?+ADw-/FONT+AD4APA-/DIV+AD4-

ZX (STB Velocity AGP 3D). Are there any known compatibility issues with this
card and if so, what I might anticipate doing to resolve it?+ADw-/FONT+AD4APA-/DIV+AD4-

on a 2nd HDD, an IBM 34GXP 20.5Gb 7200rpm on my machine. I understand that DrakX
has a good utility for partitioning, but I wondered if there were any thoughts
on good partition sizes on this HDD for cleaning up, backing up, etc etc. This
drive will be entirely linux.+ADw-/FONT+AD4APA-/DIV+AD4-

+AFs-In addition the drive will also be hooked up to the motherboard's IDE
controller (which doesn't support the ATA/66 as well as I understand Linux
doesn't at this point.). Are there any pointers to make sure that the drive is
setup properly for use with the OS?+AF0APA-/FONT+AD4APA-/DIV+AD4-
