[vox-tech] 3d videocards with linux.

[Bill Broadley]

Anyone out there have a Radeon 7500 and have 2d and 3d working with it?

I'd love to compare a new nforce motherboard (gf2mx on board) with it.

My main goal is 2d+3d in a fairly cheap package.  The Abit NV7m is $129 which
isn't bad considering it has network, 2d, and 3d.  Even the cheaper 7500 +
a kt266a board = $200 ish.

Oh btw the radeon 7500 and 8500 are getting WAY cheaper:
Radeon 7500's are down to $ 75
Radeon 8500's are down to $135

Today the 7500 supports 2d and 3d with linux.

Today the 8500 supports 2d only in linux.

The geforce 4's today are unsupported, but allegedly the gf4 driver
will come out tomorrow.

Apparently the extra code necessary to do T&L on the ATI 7500 which
will also be all that is necessary to get the 8500 working is very
close to release as well.

Err... Uh.  Since the dotfiles site /does/ seem to still exist, I think
it'd just make sense to contribute there.

Yes, it is at http://dotfiles.com/.; Nice site.

Sorry for the delay... busy weekend. Looks like you got 
your answer already, which is good, because I had my 
refrences mixed.

I forgot that the masq modules need to be used with the 
iptables code as well...

What I was referring to was from the packet-filtering-
HOWTO:
--snip--
ESTABLISHED
A packet which belongs to an existing connection (i.e., 
a reply packet, or outgoing packet on a connection which 
has seen replies).

RELATED
A packet which is related to, but not part of, an 
existing connection, such as an ICMP error, or (with the 
FTP module inserted), a packet establishing an ftp data 
connection.

Re: [vox-tech] bootdisk with samba mounting support needed

[Stephen M. Helms]

Demolinux can do this if it can detect / install your network card.  I have had
problems with it on some laptops.  Laptops with pcmcia network adapters are not
always detected either due to the pcmcia bus not being detected or the network
card itself.

If I remember correctly Ryan is using a laptop.  That is why I mention this.

Another thing to try is getting the dos based pcmcia and network card drivers.
You can then make a TCP/IP based boot disk and use the net use command from dos.
Not the easiest thing to do, but I have some examples if needed.
