Re: [SLUG] need a hand with iptables

Hmmm I know I wanted to go by MAC address for a good reason but I'm stumped if I can remember what it was. I'll remember it after i wake up properly. I'll have a look at the patch. Thanks heaps :) On Mon, 2003-02-10 at 20:39, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > Do you really need to go by MAC address?

You could try Option "SWCursor" "on" under the video card device section of your XF86Config-4 file. It is recommended for the same problem on some notebooks Regards Steven On 7/2 Terry Collins wrote I'm having a problem with my mouse cursor - it is appearing on the screen 1cm to the ri

Re: [SLUG] need a hand with iptables
