    Hi,
    
    1) I have tried to display 3D layout using Magic without success.
    The configuration of my Linux machine :
    * Redhat 9.0
    * XFree86 Version 4.3.0
    * NVIDIA GeForce4 MX graphics card
    * Magic-7.2.62
    
    I can invoke magic with "magic -w -dOGL -T technologyfile". I can see the 
    layout
    refresh rate is slower with -dOGL enable but get a blank window when using
    "specialopen wind3d" command. Then I downloaded the NVIDIA Accelerated linux
    driver (2D functionality and OpenGL support) and installed on my Linux 
    machine.
    The X windows startup is OK but magic crashes (segmentation fault). Do you
    know why it crashes? Is it related to using incorrect OpenGL libraries in 
    Magic?
    Do you think I need a different graphics card?
    
    2) Is there any documents discussed how to create the postscript style of 
    plot
    section in the technology file? I want to modify an existing technology file 
    to
    input GDS file and output GDS and postscript files.
    
    Thank you for your help.
    
    Best regards,
    
    Albert
