get two wrong and 1 right.
That said if jammed I'll ask.

I just figured to wait until a clearer day to give another shot.

Know that one.
Dazed and confused a day or two I've been just playing.

Saved your corrected .configure syntax and video driver as text file however.

I think I've the first one of those.

Yup, even I know that's impressive.

My quality is fine just now.
