He's completely misreading it!
Okay, so what partitions do you need? Well, some operating systems
do not believe in booting from logical partitions for reasons that
are beyond the scope of any sane mind. So you probably want to
reserve your primary partitions as boot partitions for your MS-DOS,
OS/2 and Linux or whatever you are using. ...

Agreed, since only dos uses the bootable flag, and dos won't boot from
a logical partition? (I don't know about the latter).

Completely repartition your removeable hard drive with FDISK as follows:
1. Delete all existing partitions.
2. Create a DOS extended partition that uses the entire drive.
3. Create as many logical drives within the extended partition as you wish.
Their drive letters will follow those of your 1st hard drive.

Anyone ??? Tried to convert new drive
partitions to Logical but it still assigns
drive letters D: and E: to the new drive :(.
I dont want to mess with the DRIVE-1,
but I guess if I converted to logical the 4
primary's it may work.

Likely every application program can *open* a *.pwp file.
You probably don't want to ask that question. Instead, you want to ask
"What application program creates or uses 'pwp' files?"

Subject: How do I find what library provides a symbol?

I am trying to run gnome-terminal patched for japanese support. I am
getting the following error:
gnome-terminal: error while loading shared libraries: gnome-terminal:
undefined symbol: zvt_term_set_open_im
This symbol is the kanji input manager. Compiling from source is no help -
the library that provides the funtionality is missing, so the compiled
version, while it will run, won't have the internaitonal support I need.
I figure I need a patched library as well.
How do I find what library provides this symbol?

I am having trouble running commands on a linux machine remotely when
I log in through emacs running on a solaris machine. That is, if I
start a subshell in the solaris/emacs and use it to rlogin to the
linux machine some commands will just hang. For example, if I type
ls -a
and hit return nothing happens. No error messages, no "permission
denied," nothing in any error logs that I can find.
If instead I type
ls -a;
or
alias goof='ls -a'
goof
it works.
I would be grateful for any ideas. Thanks.

They changed the Websites after our Lawyers started the lawsuit in Germany,
I have a backup of pages which declares HP1220c/PS is a PostScript Lev. 3
Printer. They lied in Dec. 2000, sure. That's proven without any doubt.

We had trusted HP blindly, but were much too many times disapointed.
So much HArdware failures [dead on delivery] we had in 2000,
was never before.
About 3 of 10 Devices were warnty cases. [Omnibooks, Printers (Deskejt&Laser),
Scanners, DATs].
We will NEVER sell any HP Hardware again.

Subject: How to make money in no time!!
Date: Tue, 1 May 2001 14:46:07 +0200
Hello, My Friends..
I Found This Mail On A Bulletin Board And Decided To Try It.
You Can Make Thousands Of Dollars Within Weeks With Only An Initial
Investment Of $6.00!
So I Thought, "Yeah Right, This Must Be A Scam",
But Like Most Of Us, I Was Curious, So I Kept Reading. Anyway, It
Said That
You Send $1.00 To Each Of The 6 Names And Addresses Stated In The
Article.
You Then Place Your Own Name And Address At The Bottom Of The List
At #6, And Post The Article To At Least 200 Newsgroups.
(There Are Thousands). No Catch, That Was It. So After Thinking
It Over And Talking To A Few People At First, I Thought About Trying
It.
I Figured "What Have I Got To Lose Except 6 Stamps And $6.00,
Right?".
Then, I Invested The Measly $6.00.
Well, GUESS WHAT!!!! Within 7 Days,
I Started Getting Money In The Mail!!!
I Was Shocked. I Figured It Would End Soon, But The Money
Just Kept Coming In. In My First Week, I Made About $25.00.
By The End Of The Second Week,I Had Made A Total Of Over $1000.00!!
In The Third Week, I Had Over $10,000 And Its Still Growing. This Is
Now My
Forth Week And I Have Made A Total Of Just Over $42,000 And Its Still
Coming
In Rapidly. Its Certainly Worth $6.00 And 6 Stamps, I've Spent More
Than
That On The Lottery!!
Let Me Tell You How This Works And Most Importantly, Why It
Works...Also,
Make Sure You Print A Copy Of This Article NOW, So You Can Get The
Information From It As You Need It. I Promise You That
If You Follow The Directions Exactly, That You Will Start Making More
Money
Than Thought Possible By Doing Something So Easy! Suggestion: Read
This
Entire Article Carefully!
(Print It Out Now Or Download It)
Follow The Simple Instructions And Watch The Money Come In! It Easy,
And
Most Importantly,Its LEGAL. And Your Investment Is Only $6.00 (Plus
Postage).
IMPORTANT: This Is Not A Rip-Off; It Is Not Indecent ;It Is Not
Illegal, And
It Is Virtually No Risk - It Really Works!!!!
If All Of The Following Instructions Are Adhered To, You Will Receive
Extraordinary?
Dividends.
PLEASE NOTE: Please Follow The Following Instructions, And $50,000
Or More Can Be Yours In 20 To 60 Days.
This Program Remains Successful Because Of The Honesty And Integrity
Of The
Participants. Please Continue Its Success By Carefully Adhering To The
Instructions. You Will Now Become Part Of The Mail Order Business.
Here Are The 4 Easy Steps To Success:
STEP 1:Get 6 Separate Pieces Of Paper And Write The Following On Each
Piece
Of Paper:
"PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST". Now Get 6 US $1.00 Bills And
Place ONE
Inside Each Of The 6 Pieces Of Paper So The Bill Will Not Be Seen
Through
The Envelope (To Prevent Thievery). Next, Place One Paper Inside EACH
Of The
6 Envelopes And Seal Them. MAKE SURE
THERE IS ENOUGH POSTAGE ON YOUR ENVELOPES.
You Should Now Have 6 Sealed Envelopes, Each With A Piece Of Paper
Stating The Above Phrase, Your Name And Address, And A $1.00 Bill.
What You Are Creating Is A Service. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY LEGAL!
You Are Requesting A Legitimate Service And You Are Paying For It!
Like Most
Of Us, I Was A Little Skeptical And A Little Worried About The Legal
Aspects
Of It All.
So I Checked It Out With The US Post Office (1-800-725-2161)And
They Confirmed It Is Indeed Legal! Mail The Six Envelopes To The
Following Addresses:
1) Alexandria Lemus 2800 Chickaree Lane, Modesto, CA, 95358, USA
2) T. Gray, 72 Broadleaf Avenue, Bishops Stortford,
Herts., CM23 4JZ, United Kingdom
3) J. Fugate P.O.Box 6638 Evansville, In 47719-0638
4) M. Sadique, BB-G-9 Jln 4/14B, Pandan Indah 55100, KL, MALAYSIA.
5) R. Boyle, 5915 ValleyWay Apt.#1 Niagara,Falls,Ont,Canada,L2E1X
6) Branko Brkljac, Sremskih boraca 83/12, 11080 Zemun, Yugoslavia
STEP 2: Now Take The #1 Name Off The List That You See Above,
Move The Other Names Up (6 Becomes 5, 5 Becomes 4, Etc...) And Add
YOUR Name As #6 On The List.
STEP 3:Change Anything You Need To, But Try And Keep This Article As
Close
To The Original As Possible. Now, Post Your Ammended Article To At
Least 200
Newsgroups. (I Think There Are Close To 24,000 Groups). All You Need
Is 200,
But Remember,The More You Post, The More Money You Make!
**EVERYBODY AROUND THE WORLD CAN DO IT,BUT REMEMBER TO PUT ENOUGH
POSTAGE
STAMP(S) ON YOUR ENVELOPES!!!**
This Is Perfectly Legal! If You Have Any Doubts, Refer To Title 18
Sec. 1302
& 1341 Of The Postal Lottery Laws. Keep A Copy Of These Steps For
Yourself
And Whenever You Need Money, You Can Use It Again And Again. BUT
PLEASE
REMEMBER, That This Program Remains Successful Because Of The Honesty
And
Integrity Of The Participants And By Their Carefully Adhering To The
Instructions. Look At It This Way; If You Are Of Integrity, This
Program
Will Continue And The Money So Many Others Have Received Will Come
Your Way.
Note: You May Want To Retain Every Name And Address Sent To You,
Either On A
Computer Or Hard Copy And Keep The Notes
People Send You. This Verifies That You Truly Are Providing A Service.
Also,It Might Be A Good Idea To Wrap The $1.00 Bill In Dark Paper To
Reduce
The Risk Of Mail Theft. So, As Each Post Is Downloaded And The
Erections
Carefully Followed, Six Members Will Be Reimbersed For Their
Participation
As A List Developer With One Dollar Each.
Your Name Will Move Up The List Geometrically So That When Your
Name Reaches The #1 Position, You Will Be Receiving Thousands Of
Dollars In CASH!!! What An Investment For Only $6.00
($1.00 For Each Of The People Listed Above)Send It NOW, Add Your Own
Name
And Address And You're In Business!!
DIRECTIONS FOR HOW TO POST TO NEWSGROUPS

Button.
Congratulations, THAT'S IT!!! All You Have To Do Is Jump To Different
Newsgroups And Post Away, After You Get The Hang Of It, It Will Take
About
30 Seconds For Each Newsgroup!
**REMEMBER, THE MORE NEWSGROUPS YOU POST IN (Message Boards Etc...)
THE MORE MONEY YOU WILL MAKE BUT YOU HAVE TO POST A MINIMUM OF 200.
That's IT! You Will Begin Receiving Money From Around The World
Within Days.
You May Eventually Want To Rent A P.O Box Due To The
Large Amount Of Mail You Will Receive. If You Wish To Remail
Anonymous, You
Can Invent A Name To Use, As Long As The Postman Will Deliver It.
**JUST
MAKE SURE THE ADDRESS IS CORRECT**
Say, I Receive Only 5 Replies (A Very Low Example).
So Then, I Made $5.00 With My Name At Number 6 On The Letter. Now,
Each Of Those 5 People Who Just Sent Me $1.00 Make The MINIMUM 200
Postings, Each With My Name At #5 On The List, And Only 5 People
Respond To Each
Of The Original 5, That Is Another $25.00 For Me
Now Thsoe 25 People Each Make 200 MINIMUM Posts
With My Name At #4 On The List And Only 5 Replies Each, I Will
Bring In An Additional $125.00! Now Those 125 People Turn Around And
Post The MINIMUM 200 Postings With My Name At #3 On The List And Only
Receive 5 Replies Each, I Will Make An Additional $626.00! Okay, Now
Here Is
The Fun Part Each Of Those 626 People Post A MINIMUM 200 Letters
With My
Name At #2 And They Each Only Receive 5 Replies That Just Made Me
$3,125.00
Those 3,125 People Deliver This Message To 200 Newsgroups With My
Name At
#1, And If Still Only 5 People Per 200 Newsgroups React, I Will
Receive
$15,625.00. With An Initial Investment Of ONLY $6.00. AMAZING!!! When
Your
Name Is No Longer On The List, You Just Take The Latest Posting In The
Newsgroups, And Send Out Another $6.00 To Names On The List, Putting
Your
Name At #6 Again. And Start Posting Again.
The Thing To Remember Is: Do You Realise That Thousands Of People
All Over The World Are Joining The Internet And Reading These
Articles
Everyday?!!,
JUST Like You Are Now!!
So, Can You Afford $6.00 And See If It Really Works???
I Think So...People Have Said "What If The Plan Is Played Out And
No One Sends You The Money?"
So What! What Are The Chances Of That Happening When There Are
Thousands Of
New Honest People Who Are Joining The Internet Everyday And Are
Willing To
Give It A Try?
Estimates Are At 20,000 To 50,000 New Users Everyday With Thousands
Of Those
Joining The Actual Internet. Remember, Play FAIRLY And HONESTLY And
This
Will Really Work.
You Might Have Been Already Thinking How You Are Going To Stop
People From Copying This Message With Their Name At #6 And Not
Sending A Dollar To The First Six On The List. Here's The Deal. The
Six
People Own The Rights To This Service, Now They Aren't The Only Ones
Who Own
These Rights. To Get These Rights, You Have To Purchase Them From The
Six
People On The List.
Why Do You Have To Purchase Them From All 6 You Ask? Thats What Makes
This
Service Work. If You Decide To Break These Rules, That's When It
Becomes
Illegal, And That Is Why You Must Be Fair To Everyone!
This Is Like, So AWESOME!! So TRY It Right NOW! Okay?
Make Huge Bucks In Just A Few Short Weeks!

scanned roll of film) or a Professional Write text document.

I'm having a bit of trouble getting Quake3Arena to play at an
acceptable speed. My setup is as follows:
CPU: dual PII-overdrives 333MHz
RAM: 384MB
Video: 3Dfx Voodoo3 3000 PCI
Disk: 18GB IBM SCSI (40MB/sec) 7200RPM
Kernel: 2.4.3
X: XFree86-4.0.3 w/ tdfx driver and DRI and GLX modules
The game looks fine, but the response is horrible. I get anywhere
from 2-10 secs/frame. That's right secs/frame, not frames/sec.
I get the same results playing as a user or root.
Can anyone help me out here? I know I should be getting like anywhere
from 30-50 frames/sec.
Please send responses to my e-mail address: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Thanks,
Charles Fultz

I assume you've tried:
file *.pwp

I know im not on Linux but for ref I get fairly stable 60fps in 800*600 with
most of the candy on using
v3-3000 AGP
Athlon750
256Mb
Win2K
So you should be able to get 30-50 without issues.
Have you tried turning SMP off in Q3 as I doubt the 3dfx drivers support it.
Might be the problem. Just look for smp in your config and make sure its set
to 0.
