Hi, I've spent a few hours trying to get it right. I am able to
"connect" the devices correclty but when it's time to open the devices I
get a file "No such device" error. The code is at:

http://pastebin.ca/1308960

and I think the problem is around evall_open (line 129). Probably just a
look of an experienced developer can give me some small indication what
to do to solve the issue.

Thank you
Alessio
