The reason they did that, is because .ps is an old-time unix standard. You can view in in Ghostview or gv, or print it out directly to any postscript printer, or any unix printer with a postscript filter. But you're correct in that an HTML format would be accessible by the most people. > elaborate please, i have been playing w/xvidtune, but i need more...

If they're user-mode type questions, sure, send them to me (not to the list). But make sure you have X up and running correctly first. I can't help you with video card drivers or xf86config's.
