Hello Leif you are great! You keep everything! I remember sometime ago
when you solved a question about a contest in moon-net, and you had
recorded all the ARRL contest audio from your station.!! :-)

Sorry for delay, but I am migrating from windows to Linux slowly and I have
been two days working hard until I have now running my "winmodem" into
mandrake 9.1, after installed some drivers from the Internet. I am
writting from Mozilla Mail in Linux. Amazing, I can't believe it, I was
thinking in throwing my "winmodem" trough the window and buy an external
one...hi!  Now I have also Linrad working in Mandrake 9.1 with my athlon
1200 MHz.

Many thanks for the data you have sent about my linrad past
configuration on the 486.I see one important diference from that
parameters to the
current ones. Now , linrad only detects 1 dsp working device (/dev/dsp),
and before there were 2 devices (/dev/dsp and /dev/dsp1, linrad detected
32 and 33, now only 32). Linrad says dsp1 does not work, so that I use
dsp for input and output (rd/wr). I have been
searching in /dev/ folder and I have got the two devices dsp1 and dsp ,
but dsp1 does not work with Linrad. I have played changing DMAhigh and
DMAlow,and  IRQ from sound card at /etc/conf.modules but no luck.
Everytime sound stops Linrad says "sync error"

Now, changing parameters Linrad35 WORKS NOW in the 486 without sync
errors but linrad56 and linrad 01.03 do not work properly( many sync
errors, and sound stops). Does it make sense? Perhaps too much work for
the 486? if I can make the two dsp devices working will the situation 
improve?

My sound card is a classic Sound Blaster 16 and 24 MB RAM 486

Any sugerences?
Many thanks for your help.
