I have an nvidia card and cannot get it to work for the life of me. the drive attached, but nothing happens after that. It might be the fact that I have a PCI express card. But the vesa driver is working just fine for me. On a Thinkpad T60p, using the vesa driver using GLGears, I get a little better than 30fps at 1600x1200x32 on a 15 display. Good enough for me. -- Louis KowolowskiKE7BAX [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cryptomonkeys: http://www.cryptomonkeys.com/~louisk Warning: Do not point laser at remaining eye! pgpPISOJyAnEj.pgp Description: PGP signature
SpamAssassin (Perl 5.6.1, Sparc64)
I'm having a bit of an oddity with SpamAssassin (2.63) running on sparc64. I'm getting the following error (Perl 5.6.1_15): [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri Feb 20 7:11pm louisk ]$ sudo /usr/local/etc/rc.d/spamd.sh start Starting spamd. Can't coerce CODE to number in entersub at /usr/local/bin/spamd line 1259.

I've also tried copying the spamd from a functioning system (i386), and it produces the same error. Google doesn't seem to turn up anything helpful. Thanks. -- Louis Kowolowski[EMAIL PROTECTED] Cryptomonkeys: http://www.cryptomonkeys.com/~louisk You don't need perfect code to avoid security problems. There are things we're doing that are making code closer to perfect, in terms of tools and security audits and things like that. But there are two other techniques: one is called firewalling and the other is called keeping the software up to date. None of these problems (viruses and worms) happened to people who did either one of those things. If you had your firewall set up the right way -- and when I say firewall I include scanning e-mail and scanning file transfer -- you wouldn't have had a problem. --Bill Gates pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature
