Oh well, I've been looking for an excuse to a) have a home : network; b) have a linux box permanantly connected to the net; and c) buy : I'm halfway through level 3, once I get past the laser beams the game is : unplayable. It's too jerky, and the baddies get me as I bounce from 10 : degrees to their left and 20 degrees to their right. This is about what happens to me, with a 486SX 50MHZ PC, 10 megs of RAM I could play it with the UNIVBE drivers up to level three but I downloaded the ATI M64vbe.com and it's ran slower ever since. Anyone know how to uninstall the ATI M64uvbe? I get a max of 5 frams in the first level and halfway through the 3rd level its 2 to 3 frames.
