Re: OnGoing Problems

1) The Mouse. No, I Haven't Tried to make it work at the command prompt 
(I don't know how). The mouse is functioning correctly under windoze 
though, so i rule out having a bad mouse or wrong port.

2) XF80Setup. According to the documentation, XF80Setup WILL NOT WORK 
with the video card that I am using (I believe it from first hand 
experience).

3) The Kernel Version. Sorry I ommitted this critical information in my 
origonal message. It is "Caldera Open Linux Standard" Kernel Version 
2.0.33 .... 

4) Network Card. I downloaded/printed all the specs from their web site 
prior to attempting the install. According to their documentation, the 
only difference between the 905 & the 905B is that the buffer was 
increased from 4KB to 8KB to prevent the overflow problem that was 
occasionally experienced with the older model.

5) Upgrading to XFree 3.3.3... I have already attempted that. It takes 
hours to download, and each time, I received a corrupt copy.

My PRIMARY goal with this box is to set it up as an internet proxy 
server to allow all users of our Novell network (4.11 Intranetware) to 
gain access to the internet. All other functions are secondary to be 
used to demonstrate the power of Linux over DOS & Windoze to the people 
with the purse strings. If I can run ONE SPECIFIC dos based program from 
Linux, I can convert all primary software over.. Unfortunately that 
program crashed miserably when run under dosemu. I know that there is a 
unix version of that program, but the people guarding the purse dont see 
the need to purchase it.. I appreciate the extremely quick response I 
received from this group. This makes me feel more comfortable.. PS. Does 
anyone know where I can get a shoebox to save all this hair I've been 
pulling out?
Tnx.
