Hi, All,

Wow!  02-06 is VERY nice!

Today I wiped Sarge off the hard drive at home [it was not accidental, but  
rather a mercy killing] and now have Etch both at home and Hilltop, and so  
can no longer comment on problems with Sarge [RIP] and XLinrad.  With  
getting rid of Sarge and family Holiday stuff, I didn't get a lot of time  
to play with 02-06.

But I can say that 02-06 works very well on Windows on both machines I've  
tried it on, a laptop and my minitower.

And 02-06 works very well with the new Etch installation here at home,  
both in svgalib mode and in XWindows mode [using Xorg].

I again found with Etch that the STOCK Alsa sound works fine with the  
Delta44 at 96000 Hz sampling rate, and I didn't need to mess with anything  
to get sound working properly.  Sayonara OSS!!  I did set the sampling  
rate to 96000 Hz in one of the Alsa gui soundcard configurators that I  
downloaded, but actually didn't try it to see where the default was before  
I did that.

No hitches in the install, no glitches or hangups in operation, no  
unpleasant surprises at any point.

Again, very nice, Leif!

I will comment more later after I get a chance to play some more ;)

PS Linrad [Linux] did a great job with the SDR14 on the microwaves  
yesterday.  It is very nice being able to control the SDR14's frequency  
from within Linrad.  Thanks!!

Thanks again for a great job, and

73,
