Re: [digitalradio] Re: New multimode program for Linux
Hello Jose, I think the Multipsk version 4.1.1 can't work under Linux with ou without flute music as i used in this version a DLL to measure the CPU load. But as this DLL does not work in all XP versions and never in XP pro (why?), I've put this feature only as an option in the 4.1.2 version. So it will solve this Linux problem (I think). 73 Patrick - Original Message - From: Jose A.

No, did not resort to flute music at all. It started receiving. It keyed the PTT. I was in a hurry and did not insist on squeezing a QSO out of my limited time to comply with other commitments. Will try again and see. It was a couple of weeks ago.

Omar: As-Salāmu `Alaykum When you install Linux on the third drive all things will be handled properly if the Linux installs grub. grub is the tool that allows multiple operating systems to be selected. So when you insert the installation disk into the CD ROM drive, the following things must be true: The windows XP drive must be the "boot drive". You must know which device is the 20 GB target drive for Linux. You tell the Linux installer to put it on that device and to leave the Windows drive alone. With most modern Linux distributions such as SUSE, Ubuntu, etc. this is automatic unless you interfere in some way. Grub will install itself into the master boot record on the Windows drive and then when the computer reboots it will present a selection menu asking you which OS you wish to boot. 73's Bob N4HY --- In digitalradio@yahoogroups.com, "o." <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi all; > > I have an 800 MHz AMD computer with 512 MB RAM and primary 40 GB HDD and secondary 80 GB HDD divided into three virtual discs of 40, 20, and 20 GB.

I just tried running multipsk under wine. After not finding the volume control it put up a box that says something like it is trying to access through 00 and then puts a mess on the screen. What incantation are you using to get it to work?

Re: [digitalradio] Re: New multimode program for Linux
> You'll need to become comfortable with tar, ./configure, make, and > 'make install'. If you go with Puppy they have implemented a Puppy Package Manager that automates the load process from apps set up for Puppy (the friendly folks there will create a Puppy-compatible version of most apps on request) ... they are even adding a Debian import feature to enable apps set up for Debian to be automatically loaded. They have really made it user friendly. I had used SuSE but it got too bloated. Puppy is a complete operating system with suite of GUI apps, and is only about 50 - 80M and boots directly off the CDROM! Sorry to sound as though I am evangelizing for Puppy but it is a real natural for Hams using older PC's and laptops. -- Thanks! & 73, doc, KD4E ... somewhere in FL URL: bibleseven (dot) com
[digitalradio] Re: New multimode program for Linux
When my windows pc's hard disk died about 1 1/2 yrs ago, I decided not to replace it. I upgraded my linux box to suse 9.3 and haven't looked back. Open Office does everything I need in place of microsoft office. You'll need to become comfortable with tar, ./configure, make, and 'make install'. You don't have to worry about viruses. kmail and mozilla work fine. I had to locate and download the latest xine package to get my ipod shuffle to work since suse's updates didn't handle mp3's at all. It also fixed some problems with wmf files. Now my ipod is recognized automatically and gtkpod works ok. Some ham software is windows only but so is some linux software. Only you can answer which you software you need, therefore determining the operating system. Will I go back to windows? I doubt it.

[digitalradio] Re: New multimode program for Linux
Rick, The Linux distros that are out have a tool for dual boot and is pretty easy to set up. Two Yahoo groups one being Dave's W1HKJ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/linuxham/ And: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/linuxhams/ If you have a IRC client like MIRC or there are some on the Linux software that you install. Then use the Freenode server and #hamradio room, is a good place to have Linux questions related to ham radio answered.

Years ago I had a Linux dual boot and managed to correct my MBR and did not know what to do to get back to Windows, however, now I think I can repair that if it happens again so that would be an alternative. Are there any hams who have recently completely switched over to Linux? If so, can you comment on the pros and cons of your experience? Are there any good discussion groups that cover this topic? Has anyone had any success yet with the XP version of Win4Lin and running the serial ports? This seems to be the only stumbling block. 73, Rick, KV9U David Freese wrote: I would like to announce that I have posted "fldigi", release 1.01.
