The lazy-"E"-character affair

2000-12-17 Thread paolo massei
-- This strange phenomenon appairs also if I run the pure 'elvis' command, without wrappers or other options. It appears in: console, Xterm, gnome-terminal (I hate Eterm ;)) but NOT appens in 'elvis X11' under Xfree in the debian menu. It happens *only* with "E" character. For reproducing: run elvis; press i; press E. Sob!!! Any idea? paolo massei

t. With the same program you have also to correct the amount of your videocard (in kb) : the second underlined line shows the amount of 4096k of videoram while G400 has 16M. I suggest you "xf86config" program also in XF...3.6 because for XF..4 i's the only configuration tool (if I remember well). Ciao paolo massei (and his rusted English ;))
