Hey, If I had $2000, I get a good graphics card and monitor for my 386! Have you ever ran X on a standard VGA? 640x480x16? Tis a shame, since my VGA card supports 800x600x256, but my X drivers don;t support my card. The standard A3000 isn't much better. It supports some better resolutions, but nothing like 1024x768x256-- the resolution I am starting to think should be minimum for X workstations. Now that's 768K of display memory, which makes a total of 4 meg of RAM almost unuseable for real work. >> GCC's executeable is about 1.8 meg. >sounds like you compiled it with -g and didn't strip it. >my gcc-cc1 is 477KB. Well. I didn't see the -g option, but I did strip it. What's the -g option? You always wanted to discuss UNIX, GNU, X-Windows, and i386's on the Amiga news group...
