I'm sure that it will get worked out. I think Joshua is currently having some good successes with the HDSP 9652, and I'm currently learning how to modify a Gentoo ebuild to accomplish doing a patch. I also have (after more pain than I wish to recount) Windows on this Gentoo box in a dual boot config, and have the RME firmware tools to upgrade and downgrade, so I think I'm almost set to be able to try this stuff out again. I'm sure over the next few weeks and months this will get straightened out. :-) Mark ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Etnus, makers of TotalView, The best thread debugger on the planet.
