Radeon 9250 with Windows 7

Initially I couldn't get Second Life to work on my wife's desktop system, which has Windows 7 and an ATI Radeon 9250 AGP video adapter. I was eventually able to resolve the problem, though.

Setting Sofware Variable from the Command Line

I often need to run WPKG's wpkg.js script from the command line, but when run that way the %SOFTWARE% variable is not set to point to the location where I store the software I am going to install with WPKG. The value can be set from the command line, however, with set SOFTWARE=\\server\share.

When using the WPKG-client program, the variable is set by it. If you run the wpkg.js script manually with \\server\share\wpkg.js, you need to set it manually. You can create a batch file, such as wpkg.cmd to do so.

@echo off
set SOFTWARE=\\server\share
set SETTINGS=\\server\share2
cscript wpkg.js [whatever parameter you like]
