RE: [newbie] Open Universe and nVidia drivers - FIXED
Good to hear. I sometimes edit text files as non-root and did not pay attention to the warning message - hence the file remained unchanged although I swear I changed it. It sounds like you had already changed it though? Do you know how to get Open Universe to work in normal time? It always warps on me and I can't get it to go real time.

RE: [newbie] Open Universe and nVidia drivers
Please let me know how you go. I had it going some time ago but can't get it going now. Check your X server and other system logs as it starts up. It could just be a GL library or something that requires a link to the location that Open Universe is looking in.

Any suggestions on how to efficiently cope with the volume of linux-mandrake mail? I just signed up to the newbie and expert mail lists and I am overwhelmed by the volume of email. I created a new folder named linux and set the post address as "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" thinking that perhaps that would cause new incoming mail to go to that folder instead of cluttering up my inbox, but that doesn't work.

RE: [newbie] Eterm configuration Question.
I think you can try starting Eterm with various flags - like 'Eterm -t and create your own .MAIN file for your own theme cloned from another file - or just try another theme full stop. The themes should be under /usr/X1186/share/Eterm/themes or something like that.
