So now that weve argued this license business to exhaustion
isnt it time to move on to some practicalities? The license
says nothing of HOW were going to work, WHOs going to

You could try

I have the same configuration as you for my personal

- Dynamic Ip and DNS provided by www.dyndns.org

Phoebus,
here you can find what you need :
http://linux-q40.sourceforge.net/, iso image of the
Shoestring Linux.
In total it is a full CD (640MB) and a couple of
floppies to boot it only the first time.
Inside the cd you will find all the instruction to
install it.
Let me know if you need further
Quite an exciting day today.
ADSL is working and my Linux box now acts as a gateway for all our

As I have a fixed ISP, we have set up Apache as a web server, so my QL

I will get DNS to host my domai

Hi,
Does anyone know of an extension that allows the RAM seen by SMSQ/E to be
altered. I want to play around with different memory sizes for SMSQ/E on a

POV does NOT write directly to the screen, it open a
scr channel and write there, does not write directly
to the screen location !!
You do not have to do basically nothing different to
have POV working on QPC or on Q60 , I doubt you have
an old version.
This is my setup :

Mainly because they check whether they ARE running on such a machine, and, when not, just give up.

Malcom,
I normally use POV with QPC and Q60 and there is
nothing strange , POV works great with both platform.
I am just collecting a lot of wonderfull images and

colours would be incorrect on other platforms such as QPC,
but don't understand why they refuse to run. With all this

I beg your pardon, but there is a high colour sprite format for QXL and QPC.
