Windows 3.0 is probably the nicest working environment I've ever used on this heavy thing sitting next to my bed, but it's the little things that frustrate me. Just when I start getting used to the mouse and hating the keyboard, I have to use the Shift or Ctrl key in File Manager. Or, to copy/paste. Yeah, yeah -- it's a small price to pay, but I THOUGHT that's why I bought a mouse with THREE buttons?! Don't you think Shift-Left-Button could be the Right-Button? Or how about Ctrl-Left-Button being the Middle-Button? Or how about, dragging the highlight bar over text with the middle button "copies," then pressing the right button "pastes?" Hmm.. I suppose I could map a whole bunch of macros, but that would involve key-strokes :-) . . . Am I too used to XWindows? Well, while we're on the subject... If the generic SVGA driver which was posted here seems to work fine, do you see any reason to download the SVGA driver from the company which made my card? Faster? Less generic? I suppose it would be a good idea... maybe it's just late in the evening, and I've had a long day... -Dave Set flame off -- Dave Eisenberg SUNY at Stony Brook Computer Science deisenb@csserv2.ic.sunysb.edu -or- deisenbe@sbccvm.bitnet
