What is a "PSATA"? Sory Barry, it's a pata. My fat fingers do strange things sometimes. Sage, when I bought that hard drive, I was playing with several large distros. I wanted a 100 gig, but the 160 was the same price so I got that instead. And, since linux will only use half of a hard dr...

Thanks MU. Of course I was looking for a file hidden inside an installer. Small wonder I couldn't find it. I got sable to work, but it is too slow and not playable. Got pinball to play with the same results. I can't use the new version of the 3D wizard, it gives me a red dialog box that says "A...

I tried Sable, but it didn't work. Checked the dependancies and I am missing LibGLU.so.1. Looked in the repositories and couldn't find it.

Where else can I look?

Using MU's 3d wizard, one of the older ones works with my ATI 3D Rage Pro.

I finally got the 3d rivers to load, but quake2 is still looking for the libvga.so.1 file, and will not work. I guess I'll give up trying.

klhrevolutionist, I would try your new iso, but it's a torrent and I can't do torrents. Never figured out how to install it. :(

Is there an ftp or http site that I can get it from?
