While I do not expect Linux to be able to properly drive my Samsung SyncMaster 225BW monitor to its native resolution, I can usually get by with one of the other resolutions. Even though not acceptable for normal use, it can work well enough for experimental use. The problem with both computers is that the program tends to lock up and crash or if it does key up I get a kind of machine gun sound in the audio coming from the sound card. This was also true of a previous version. Almost like an interruption in the stream. Now the curious thing is that in the past one one boot disk I was testing had another digital program which worked quite well. Could I possibly be correct that it was Digipan running under Wine? Even the audio settings were right on with that program, but on the same boot disk the main flDigi program would not run properly. Has anyone else had this problem? In order for PSKmail or NBEMS to even have any realistic chance at being used here in the U.S., it simply has to run under Windows at this time. Dual boots or Boot disk approaches are not adequate for practical use, although they can give you a feel for the program. Hopefully many of you are having better luck than I am. With a Windows version you could avoid the downsides of Linux. Although ten years from now it may be a different story, it was about ten years ago that I predicted that Linux OS would be a major desktop player in 5 years. You could say that I was a bit wrong on that call:( 73, Rick, KV9U Rud Merriam wrote: > I just burned the CD. I will setup the laptop and rig to try on these > frequencies and nearby.
