so - yesterday the soundblaster pcmcia card came and I installed it and am testing it out. Initially, everything was working great - so I left it up over night. When I came in, in the morning, rat had frozen again - as it was doing with the realtech card - I disabled and re-enabled and the freeze came much faster. I then noted that I was still using the rat 4.22... I thought I had copied the latest rat into bin and the zip folder.
So, I tried the latest UCL Rat 4.3 solo - when I run that by itself (connecting to one of the NCSA ag3 venues) it works fine so I tried to copy over the rats in bin and in the zip folder again but the venue still starts up a 4.2 version of rat - is there another instance somewhere which I need to copy the new rats into? Also, I notice that the default configuration always lists my video service but it always comes up as disabled - no matter how many times i save the config after enabling At 10:47 AM 1/9/2007, you wrote: > >At 09:57 AM 1/9/2007, George Estes wrote: > >>Thanks Tom, > >> > >> I'm looking at trying a PCI-X card, since I do have an empty PCI-X > slot.
