>linux
the opengl version has been recompiled to run on a non hardware accelerated
PC linux system. it was VERYYYYYYYY slow. if someone knows a 3d card worth
using that is supported on linux using openGL, please let me know. the E&S
freedom card is only on WNT (but i've not given up trying to persuade
them), the alpha/powerstorm cards also run on NT.
given the academic price of the O2 (see last week's posting for
performance), is a linux system really interesting? NT certainly is and if
a quality card existed, i'd buy a PC for running linux.

>side-by-side
this runs on 5.10. i'll move it to 6 when i have time.

>brix
this is morten's baby. use gerard's mapmage-like option in one of his programs
