Hello, Tomi and the list ! If I start gMFSK from KDE, it is working - except I can not type from keyboard in the transmit window. I can copy and paste text in it, but keyboard is dead. From GNOME, all is OK. I suppose you'll be interested about that. Keep up a good work ! gMFSK is a very usefull piece of software.

Initially, gMSFK complained about read errors from the sound device. I tried re-assigning DMA channels from the BIOS, and updating the OSS module accordingly, but it went from read errors to write errors to a full system freeze :-( The fix was to ditch OSS for the ALSA drivers, and all is well now. I am using a Toshiba laptop and the Yamaha sound system has always been a bit tricky to get going. Anyway, the KDE sound server does a pretty good job of sharing the sound system between apps, I am going to try to record a sound bite of transmitted audio into a file, and re-play it, to see what the transmitted spectrum looks like. I am really intrigued by the MFSK, which sounds like a mix between a flute and bag-pipes on fast-forward. A question: I would like to extract PTT from a USB serial adapter, but the device file for it doesn't show up in the pick list of gMFSK. Can I safely add a symlink to the USB device file and call it, say /dev/ttyS99? Wilbert, ZL2BSJ ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 7+ messages in thread

I don't have any USB serial converters here but I suppose you could just type /dev/ttyUSB0 or /dev/usb/ttyUSB or whatever there. If the USB serial driver implements the necessary ioctls it should work. -- Tomi Manninen Internet: oh2bns@sral.fi OH2BNS AX.25: oh2bns@oh2rbi.fin.eu KP20ME04 Amprnet: oh2bns@oh2rbi.ampr.org ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 7+ messages in thread

Can you check if you have NumLock (or CapsLock or ScrollLock) on when this happens. It seems that shortly before releasing 0.4 I added a bug that makes the TX window ignore keyboard input when any modifiers are on. In fact you can't even type in CAPITAL letters... Oh well, I will release 0.4.1 soon with this and another small bug fixed. -- Tomi Manninen Internet: oh2bns@sral.fi OH2BNS AX.25: oh2bns@oh2rbi.fin.eu KP20ME04 Amprnet: oh2bns@oh2rbi.ampr.org ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 7+ messages in thread
