Hey Alex,
You said that the Reiser fs is crap, and I wonder what you meant
by that. I have been using it without problems on my system for
nearly a year now, and while I have not made any serious
comparisons, it has been reliable and efficient for me. It seems
to use less overhead that ext2 (have not tried ext3) and the idea
of maintaining filenames in a balanced tree structure makes a lot
of sense to me.
So how is it crap?
Chuck

bc my filesystems were getting corrupted about once every 2 weeks
requiring a boot into single user.

Guess I have just been lucky or something.

Hello,
I've had this synth for little over a year and already its giving me
problems. I have one message to any one thinking of buying an APOLO2,
don't. Its sluggish in windows and difficult to understand in Linux.
Ok, now that I've complained I'll get to the problem.
When LILO comes up at boot the APOLLO says something like C sadilla
about seven or eight times. If I'm loooky it will then say what I'm
booting into but only if I'm lucky. Today when I eventually got the
fedora installation working I got some speech out of it but now its
died.
I don't think this is a linux problem. Its more than likely with the
apolo as I'm not getting anything out of it in windows either.
Has any one come across this? Is it possible to fix my self or do I
have to go begging for another synth.
Thanks
Darragh

Did you replace your /boot/message as the installation HOWTO recommends?
If not, your synth is trying to pronounce the graphical splash screen.

Yes, I followed your instructions last year some time and fixed the
message file.
This problem is happening everywhere on this machine. I'll try it with
the laptop when I get a chance.
