I am a newbie to the mailing list. My name is Howell Caton. I'd like very much to help develop software for this project. My choice would be to handle the multi-player flying over a network. I've worked on serveral client-server applications (please look over my resume, attached to this message.)
I have two linux boxes and one Windows 2000 platform connected by a intranet.
My two Linux boxes are:
redhat 8.0 STB Powergraph 64 3D video card
redhat 7.2 ATI13D Rage LT Pro AGP-133 card X Server: XF86_Mach64 XFree driver: ati
XF86_Mach64 is an accelerated driver if I am not mistaken. Please correct me if I am. I haven't been able to find an accelerated driver for the Powergraph card. Can anyone tell me where to find one?
I hope I can be of service and I look forward to working with all of you.
Sincerely, Howell Caton
