I've never been rich enough to afford the ASI cards but from memory you have to have the drivers in place before you do the ./configure in the Rivendell source. If the configure summary doesn't say Yes before you do the make I don't think it will work. I also have no idea if you have to do s

Hi Robert (and others), Thanks for the advice. I have done some experiments along the lines you suggested, but have to say it doesn't really do what I want, to the extent I want. It works (after a fashion) when applying only one or two scheduler codes, but doesn't cut it when trying to
