I just downloaded a copy from sunsite.unc.edu. I've noticed two major
|
|
problems:
|
|
1. Things are mirror immaged at block level. This makes most of the
|
|
screen very difficult to view. As an example letter A in ammow
|
|
appears as
|
|
_
|
|
/ \
|
|
___||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
^--> i.e. half the leg of A is on the wrong side.
|
|
|
|
This problem is only present if I use the -2, -3, or -4 option.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. There is significant delay between action and sound. i.e. I
|
|
can fire my gun and then turn halfway around before the gun
|
|
sound comes through my speakers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Also I can't figure out how to use the VGA mode instead, of the x
|
|
mode.

Subject: >>Cheap Ethernet Pocket adapter and driver source!<<
|
|
Date: 9 Sep 1994 16:14:13 GMT
|
|
|
|
I have recently purchased a "generic" pocket ethernet adapter
|
|
for my notebook. It turns out to be an Accton EtherPocket-SP.
|
|
It costs less than $100, the barrier I was waiting to see
|
|
brocken. It works well from DOS on the parallel port of my
|
|
notebook talking to my Linux machine.
|
|
|
|
What would be very nice, is the ability to boot Linux on the
|
|
notebook and use the pocket ethernet adapter from Linux.
|
|
The nice people at Accton in Taiwan have sent me the complete
|
|
assembly source of their packet driver for DOS.
|
|
|
|
I don't know how compatible this is with other pocket adapters,
|
|
but the information should all be there in the source.
|
|
Porting the driver is too much for me for now.
|
|
|
|
Anyone interested in getting a Linux driver to work for this?
|
|
Seems like many people would like notebook connectivity for
|
|
Linux for less than $100. Thanks, dennis@math.nwu.edu

Dumb DigiBoard cards are supported by the kernel, turn on BOCA support in

drivers/char/serial.c and set the card to addresses 100h, 108h etc.

Intelligent cards are being worked on as far as I know. I've no idea when

There is no need for a Linux port of WordPerfect for Unix. WordPerfect
|
|
for Unix already runs under Linux using ICBS/COFF. Better to pester
|
|
WordPerfect for aknowledgement and support of using the SCO version on
|
|
Linux.

Again, there is no need for a Linux version of WP. The SCO version runs
|
|
fine.... pester them for official support of running the SCO version
|
|
under Linux IBCS/COFF (which is a possibility); don't bother worrying
|
|
about a native Linux version because it WILL NOT HAPPEN.

|
|
Date: 9 Sep 94 19:31:42 GMT
|
|
|
|
My software runs better on Linux than on OS/2.
|
|
|
|
Details:
|
|
|
|
I installed all the gnu-stuff on OS/2. The code I ran had a core
|
|
image of 4MBytes on SPARCs. On OS/2 it was 10MBytes (I'm not sure
|
|
why I think it my be a lot of those gcc-lib/emx DLL's or something).
|
|
That plus 8MBytes for the OS/2 system core and my computer was
|
|
swapping like mad (I have only 16MBytes of RAM). (I'd appreciate
|
|
it if an OS/2 expert can tell me if I'm doing something wrong).
|
|
|
|
OS/2 is horrible when it starts swapping.
|
|
|
|
I decided I could not do my work in OS/2 and installed Linux. The
|
|
same program which required 4Mbytes on SPARC also took 4M on Linux,
|
|
and the kernel overhead, after recompiling, was only approx 250k.
|
|
On top of that, I did not have to convert my csh shell scripts to
|
|
REXX. So now I'm more or less happy with Linux except I'm still
|
|
complaining because Linux will not let me run matlab for windows,
|
|
nor can I run Quicken while waiting for a process to complete
|
|
in the background.
|
|
|
|
Nothing is perfect I guess! But if I wanted to do my work on OS/2
|
|
I would have to go out and buy a lot more memory.

Like you all know, DOOM linux is out.
|
|
|
|
But what about a DOOM linux version that run with TERM ? It would be less
|
|
painfull that blocking your computer using the modem version. I don't know
|
|
if it wouldn't be simpler to have a IHHD server supporting term instead.
|
|
|
|
Opened discussion....
|
|
|
|
Also, is there any server on the internet that provide IHHD doom. I am probably
|
|
not the only one who don't know anybody to play with (even with the net version)
|
|
and would like to meet people from all over the world on the DOOM playground.

Yea, Yea! Thats the ticket. What a great suggestion. Not! :-) :-)
|
|
Last I check signals travel fairly fast through speaker wire. I
|
|
suppose someone could get long enough cables for this to be a problem, but
|
|
at that point I would be more worried about my floor caving in from
|
|
tons of cable. Someone else pointed out the problem is that the sound
|
|
is playing at way too slow of a speed. That is probably why the sound
|
|
continues even after I quit the game.
|
|
|
|
It sounds like, from other people's post, sound isn't working properly
|
|
for anyone. If I turn off the speakers and drop the screen resolution
|
|
it is playable, but not with anywhere near the quality I can get in
|
|
DOS... From dos it takes the full screen and the sound works
|
|
right. I guess I won't be ordering any of the other episodes if
|
|
this is the best it gets. However, I'm still hoping there is a
|
|
way to change the audio device defaults to get it to work right.
