2003-11-28 Thread David Butts
Hello, folks- I recently got my hands on a Creator3D, and, although I've got X up and running (apparently) cheerfully, almost none of the OpenGL apps I've tried are working. I'm running a stock installation of Woody, with xserver-xfree86 configured through debconf, and a 2.4.22 kernel with DRM en

I tried that with no luck. BUT I was successful in passing an nfsroot= and ip= parameter to the kernel, and doing an nfsroot install. I am having issues with XFree, and I am trying to work them out, but you help is much appreciated. If you have seen this video issue let me know. I am running X

I just finished installing debian in my IPX. Well, almost. When it is the time to make the disk bootable, this is the message I am getting: "SILO wasn't able to install. You'll still be able to boot your system if you create a boot floppy, but it won't be able to boot without a floppy." W
