Yes. I am sorry about that.

Correct. My laptop works with RedHat 9, but the stationary
PC does not. It does work partially with Fedora 1 although there are
kernel bugs in Fedora 1 that make it impossible to exit the
main processing screen even when the Delta44 is in use.

I have not been able to get the mouse running under Debian net install,
otherwise Debian works nicely with SDR-14. Recently I got some help
with Slackware 10.1 and it is the only distribution that works
properly in all respects on my stationary PC.

Robin (AA4RC) is working on it. Hopefully he will have it fixed before
the number of bugs has reached a reasonable level so I can release
Linrad-02.00. Right now it is not stable enough.
