RAR for linux is available from http://www.rarsoft.com/download.htm Known bugs for the ATI Video card driver. Unfortunately whoever is maintaining them hasn't had time to fix. The latest drivers should be available at www.XFree.org when a fix is available. You can install dual-boot with windows, but you have to set up your disk to make room for linux to install. Microsoft has kept the NTFS very secret and has no less than three mutually incompatiuble versions of it (NT4, Win2K, and XP). We can read all 3 and experimentally write only the NT4. If you want linux to make room for itself, use the FAT32 filesystem on your windows. If you use the FAT32 filesystem then wine, codeweavers wine, and transgaming winex will run most but not all windows programs. They run them by simulating the windows APIs (application programming interfaces) and the Microsoft software uses special, secret APIs that Microsoft has never released for such programs as Office, Publisher, MSIE and so on.
