I never tried toete.c having a weitek coprocessor, due to dobag being an 486 without an weitek. I would be interested in any note about it. Tote is a perfect security breach on my '386 with a weitek... It's going to be very interesting to see how fast ISC responds to this now... pax -- E-Mail:pax@megasys.com pax@ankh.ftl.fl.us gmp@pinet.aip.org USNail:Megasystems, Inc. 2055 South Congress Ave, Delray Beach, FL 33445 UUCP :{gatech!uflorida!novavax!ankh, mthvax, shark, attmail}!megasys!pax Voice :407-243-2405 Data: 407-243-2407 Fax: 407-243-2408 Telex: 156281499 "This is America, Right?!?!?" member of 2 Live Crew
