Re: 250 hits a second Wow! Lots of folks shopping for job security. To throttle back on the Canadian bashing briefly, the rest of that fellow's site was quite nice. If more people put their stuff online like that, it would be a better world (even Canada). The fellow is entirely 'open/community' minded. It's a bit ironic that he's getting so much notoriety for the 'job security - howto' piece. Also, I discovered another site looking for an email/calendar/PIM/auto-responder/bookmarks/blah-blah thing. This one is done by Canadians and looks quite ascended at first blush. opendesktop.com Any opinions on this stuff? chunmun: In a continuing effort to make the SI SUNW thread the resource for obscure device drivers and related info, I've located this for you. news.excite.com It says that they'll (ATI) will be releasing the source code for your vid card's device driver sometime in the Spring of the year 2000. At that point, you should be able to get it working with Solaris 2.51, although you may be able to get the thing working now under Linux. You could of course, use XFree86 on Solaris and get a similar effect (I think). Hope that helps -JCJ
