Hi, ..you joined the developers list? (FU set to devel.) ;-) OK, I did join. ..in your knoppix remasters, do you get those Nvidia cards autodetected? Yes, for all nvidia cards which are supported by the closed source version the nvidia driver is used, for the other ones (e.g. RIVA 128)

It looks like matching changes for the VASI have been committed to FlightGear and SimGear very recently - you probably had the misfortune to do a checkout in the middle of them. Try checking out SimGear again and recompiling. Lucky me :-) I updated both repositories and now everything

Hi, I invested some hours and created a standalone version of my customized Knoppix with the latest stable flightgear version on it. As I already mentioned I have added support for OpenGL on Nvidia cards. (Most other cards are supported by the standard X11 driver set ...) The ISO-Image is 337

I would think it would be best to use FlightGear as the window manager. You could acomplish this: http://baron.flightgear.org/pipermail/flightgear-devel/2002-March/006012.ht ml I think it is at least problematic to run FlightGear without a window manager. The help system is not integrated

The places where they put unimportant things like @, [, ], {, }, \, etc. Face it: German keyboards may be suitable for secretaries or poets, but they are a royal pain for technical stuff like programming. If you look back in history (damn, I'm not that old) keyboards _have_ been designed
