Shouldn't that be 'tact blows'!

I thought 'sucks' is short for 'sucks the hind teat', as in a runt
being forced to the least desirable (least milk) nipple.

Anyway, use of colloquialism or slang in an international forum just
sticks in my craw and is as useless as balls on heifer.

Then don't do it, don't get involved in such discussions. But it
demonstrates a certain lack of respect to dis other people who seem
comfortable with it. As to utility, I don't think your individual opinion
should be forced on others. Do you? How would you like -me- making such
decisions about -you-?

The idea -isn't- to lower the bar to some commen level. Just jump higher
if you feel the need. Otherwise, move to a different event.

The -really- funny thing about his sort of stuff is the people doing the
complaining are -the- ones turning it into a flame fest.

Uhh, ``sticks in my craw'' and ``useless as balls on a heifer'' are
both colloquialisms.  I think Skip was making a joke.

Or to paraphrase Robert Heinlein "I am inhibited in expressing myself
by the presence of a non-native English speaker ; therefore I cannot
adequately discuss the ancestry, personal habits, morals, and
destination of those who use "enjoy colorfull conversations" in
presence of such"

In the same I way I can say that Choate was mixing his cases in Russian.

[9fans] VGA card not in lib/vgadb

[Mike Fletcher]

Who can tell me what magic entries to use to get
the following to work in Plan9 r4

ATI Rage 128 VR  (identified in the VGA BIOS as
                  0xC0082="RAGE128 VR")

I put the id string shown above in the most obvious
place in /lib/vgadb; but I get errors saying vclk
is out of range no matter what resolution I try.

Monitor is multisync, CPU is Pent3/500MHz - both by
Gateway.

Any help will be appreciated.

thanks,
