Are you aware that the software default is MIC IN not LINE IN ? To
switch to LINE IN, boot up FL-DIGI , go in to CONFIG, click on
Soundcard and change the mixer setting to LINE IN.

My problem is that the soundcard does not send enough audio to the
waterfall
display, only barely flickering the first two bars in the
waterfall
display color setup. - The tuning scope goes crazy, indicating a
station and
copying signals just fine, but the waterfall stays almost
completely blank
unless there is a really strong signal, which will barely light up
the
second color bar for the waterfall, showing a faint trace...
I can pull the disk, reboot the machine in Win98 and all my
waterfall
programs work just fine... DigiPan, MixW, AltCast, etc..
That's the problem with Linux boot disks... - You've got about a 50-
50
chance that it is going to work on any particular machine. If it
doesn't
work, your chances of fixing the problem are like, 'slim or none'.
Having said that, I recognize that my problem reflects some
peculiarity
about my old 400 Mhz Celeron that Puppy Linux cannot deal with. The
software
itself works very well, from what I can tell with almost no
waterfall data.
It's kind of like the slots... Keep trying different machines out,
and
sooner or later you are going to hit the jackpot. That's what I
intend to do
on this end.
Looking over the NBEMS package, I am very impressed with the entire
package,
and I really like 'puppy linux', so much that I switched over from
DSL
linux, my former favorite. I think its well worth a little extra
effort
because it is a great system.
