[linrad] SuSE 9.1, SVGALIB and Linrad

[Christoph Petermann <cpe@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

Leif and Friends,

Good news: Linrad works perfectly with SuSE Linux 9.1 !!

Problem has been in the SVGALIB, which did not compile. I contacted that 
friendly guy Matan Ziv-AV, and he sent me a new pre-release SVGALIB 1.9.19 
which supports more graphic cards and Linux 2.6 Kernel.

Matan Ziv-AV will publish the new SVGALIB soon on his site 
http://www.svgalib.org


May be the problem is with my LINUX setup only here, I will describe my 
procedure here - which is quite simple at last.

Linrad seems to work better with the improved ALSA system now than with SuSE 
8.2. But you should NOT allow Linrad to swap to disk - this results in a 
complete crash of my machine (3 times now), where I have to unplug it.

See you !
