Hey Lyvim! Don't feel bad - I've not gotten mine either. The check has been
cashed for quite some time though. I ordered the DVD with manuals, and the
sad thing is that I don't know if its even gonna do me any good or not. V9.0
has been very problematic here. It installed perfectly on my sons 3 year old
machine. It installed perfectly on my main computer - then absolutely refused
to boot up. Dennis suggested passing the "linux noapic" line to it, and that
seemed to work - I can boot up now - and can't shutdown at all. I've tried
various combinations of "halt", "powerdown", and "shutdown" with -h now etc,
etc,... but nothing works. It starts shutting down, gets to:
sending all processes the term signal <OK>
sending all processes the kill signal <OK>
and thats it. Nothing more, to paraphrase a certain raven from a classic Edgar
Allen Poe poem... <grin>
and it won't even reboot as well. It stops at the same place.
Needless to say, after having to use a hardware reset or poweroff, its not too
happy when it restarts. :-(
I'm hoping for an answer on this list...
See ya!
