I have a few more questions about how to do some what
I consider to be "oddball" things in Linux.
1. Is there some utility I can use that will to a
16bit -> 8bit conversion for my SoundBlaster 2.01? I
know there are patching packages to do this, but for
some reason I always get a bad kernel in the end. I'd
like something that I could put in one of my rc.x
scripts or something like that. I'm using Caldera
OpenLinux w/ kernel 2.2.10.
2. Is there a way to make the S3 XServer do above 8bit
color with a card that has an unrecognized RAMDAC? Is
it possible to use a XServer that uses the VESA
standard? I have XFree86 v3.3.4 installed and am
using KDE 1.1.1.
Thanks to all who read and reply...
