[tech] Server stuff

[Knud]

I just noticed what was the problem with my server (i.e. none like it) it was a 1.0 one tweaked. I just got rune initial version for linux and then cheated that into believe it was a hov one. Problems: it has bugs inherent to first version and comboing doesnt work fine (Egil opened my eyes on this).

So by now im preparing 2 workarounds:

1 - The obvious one: Im dling the hov version for linux
2 - The meanwhile weird one: Im setting up a vmware windows xp virtual machine where ill place the rune server.

Meanwhile the (1) is still in progress ill test the second choice, Ill try to fire that server up this evening...

So if you ever have the time go and test it "speed, comboing... etc" as im not sure how vmware will perform

Note: for those who dont really know what "vmware" is; its a tool for having virtual machines inside a machine (like having another PC inside your pc) like you could have another windows inside your windows box. Im not sure if i made myself clear. Anyway www.vmware.com (It's not free)
