Yahoodoodle Mail has its own time stamp!! Doesn't use
the boxes time. And I had it 'set' when I powered off,
and now Knoppix says its 6:15 am..oh, well. This is
one of the forgotten reasons I quit using Mandy
installations last year. Set it, and next power up, it
is off. The minutes are correct, just 'seemily random'
time zone choices!!!

Guess I will either live with it, or change to Slack
or some other installation!!! Then this whole GW
(Great Wonder if it will run) system has been a pita
since the very first 'reinstall/recovery' when Jim
owned it back in about 2002 or so. Mid 2000 machine
p3-850 256mb ram, 30 gig, 128mb radeon video. Last
time 'doze re'd, the video was realll screwy, 1/2
screen vertical until Jimmy did some weird
convolutions to get full screen

The video was an addon as the old orginal 32mb card
was too small for the 64mb games he wanted.

Just fyi.

Ed C.

ps. don't worry anyone silly about the 'time' have
wrist watch, and NO mail access other than web based.
Qworst 256/256 ($15/mo) and the 'basic' pop
connection...used to be $6.95, now $9.95/mo as they
think I need 'roaming' dialup!!!

=====
Cyclists should expect and demand safe 
accommodation on our public roads, 
just as does every other user.  

Nothing more is expected. 

Nothing less is acceptable!

Long live Knoppix!!
