I am not aware of any Unix that runs under XP. There are some around that can reside in a FAT of NTFS filesystem, but most have to boot (not run as a "sub-process").

My recomendation would be to grab a second box, a Pentium-class with 32-64 meg of RAM. I have a box at home that runs fairly well - it's a P133 w/ 32 mb Ram... X-Windows will be pretty slow on that box, but it'll get the job done.

I personally wouldn't add a hard drive to an XP box... I don't know how XP handles dual-booting / addition of hardware.

Anyone have any experience with this?

NAME
glutDialsFunc - sets the dial & button box dials callback for the current window. SYNTAX
#include <GLUT/glut.h> void glutDialsFunc(void (*func)(int dial, int value)); ARGUMENTS
func The new dials callback function. DESCRIPTION
glutDialsFunc sets the dial & button box dials callback for the current window. The dial & button box dials callback for a window is called when the window has dial & button box input focus (normally, when the mouse is in the window) and the user generates dial & button box dial changes. The dial parameter will be the dial number (starting at one). The number of available dial & button box dials can be determined with glutDeviceGet(GLUT_NUM_DIALS). The value measures the absolute rotation in degrees. Dial values do not ``roll over'' with each com- plete rotation but continue to accumulate degrees (until the int dial value overflows). Registering a dial & button box dials callback when a dial & button box device is not available is ineffectual and not an error. In this case, no dial & button box dials callbacks will be generated. Passing NULL to glutDialsFunc disables the generation of dial & button box dials callbacks. When a new window is created, no dial & button box dials callback is initially registered. SEE ALSO
