Hey Kurt and the gang;

I would STRONGLY suggest downgrading **AltOS** and seeing which of the old
versions might help (PROVIDED the telegps will work with the older
software). <- Depending on which "distro" of linux I am using (ubuntu or
archlinux) I cannot do the flightpack configuration &/or any flightline
monitoring of my (or others flyer"s) tm's or telemegas UNLESS I downgrade
the AltOS below 1.5x.

Best regards;

Bob F.
