i am really happy with my setup on fedora 4 now. i have cured the overheating problem now. there is a daemon called microcode which is supposed to be something to do with the processor. i turned it on and now it seems to run better. don't ask me!
i am getting a little bit addicted to this tank game called bzflag. there are some really funny people who play and the game is so much fun. you drive around shooting other tanks and you form teams (with humans over internet) to capture the other teams flags. when you pick up white flags they give you a special weapon. lasers and guided missiles are the most fun. the game was donated to the open source movement from silicon graphics i think. they used it to show off their hardware. it is hard to believe it is a free game.
