Ive not answered anything about any GForce. As I do not know how to get GForce to work. Glad you made it, care to share of your knowledge? A hint. If you ask something, and get a feeling that everybody ignores you. Maybe its because they do _not_ know the answer. Actually even thou its rude, I like to read those: "Success, but no thanks to you" mails. Because they actually are usefull, if they contain how the problem was solved. Some people suggested that people sign of when they pass the "newbie" state (and becomes... wanabe?). Thats sad, and a _big_ loss. The question is, Why? Do they not want to share of their knowledge? Do they get bored at people asking the same questions? Or do they not believe thay could actually help others? Anyway this thread is going no where. Unless someone has a solution to how to improve this list, or the Linux comunity. // Jarmo PS. Passed the X-newbie state, but just a tiny bit. DS.
