Re: .deb and .rpm package coexistance



I email from uni, which is NT in every lab (yuck), I generally play games
from Windows (better performance), and I got my 3dfx card before glide
wrappers even existed (pure3d). Also at present 3dfx are the only company
that other any sort of 3d acceration for games under linux so they are far
from *evil*.  I generally use windows, what I been brought up on, slowly
moving to linux, so there, oh  and your attutude stinks towards winblows
users stinks :P.

module (/dev/3dfx) does ....
