Sadly, no luck with the ATI card under Linux. Not for lack of trying. I even managed to reboot the machine (probably by pissing off the video card to invoke some kind of system error). I’ll read up and see if I can use the GATOS stuff to get a VideoForLinux driver working, but I’m not real confident at this point, since my first attempt at it did end up rebooting the machine. Sadly, I didn’t get much else done today.

On the plus side Girl Genius 3-5 showed up today and 4 and 5 are now in color and do look very nice. The story is progressing nicely, but the downside is that it looks like it will take at least another year or maybe two before we really have full story arcs getting resolved. I’m just too impatient! In the meantime, I’ll see about collecting the rest of the Usagi Yojimbo books. Also got ahold of Stephanie from nethersphere.com and the two prints that I wanted are available, and so I sent her the money via paypal and she’s gonna mail them to me. I’m pretty happy about that. They are a bit on the spendy side, but I think they will frame well, and we certainly need more art and stuff.
