PSK - Only slightly off topic
by Billie Erin Walsh 01 Oct '06

Well..................................................... I tried the KPSK but as far as I can see it has some problems that go a ways back with no support showing from the developers. SO, I decided to blow it off. Did find a TWPSK for Linux and installed it. I have to run it from CLI, but I can live with that if I have to. When I try to start it I get this: ***************************************************************** Compiled with @(#)Motif Version 2.2.3 Running with @(#)Motif Version 2.2.3 Using full duplex mode! Cannot open PTT device /dev/ttyS1: Permission denied Can't open code table file 'psk31.cod' **************************************************************** I'm thinking the error message is because there is no radio hooked up to the computer. I do have my backup computer dual booted with Win98 [ the last version you could make a functional start up disk from ] so I downloaded and installed digipan. I think someone mentioned they had a schematic for a simple interface unit. Would it be possible for them to send it to me. If I can get things working, what the heck give it a shot. -- (o:]>HUGGLES*<[:o) Billie Walsh The three best words in the English Language: "I LOVE YOU" Pass them on!

From: T + J Williams <wa0eir(a)mchsi.com> To: bilwalsh(a)swbell.net Subject: Re: [suse-ham-e] PSK - Only slightly off topic Date: Sun, 01 Oct 2006 01:28:26 -0500 Hi Billie, The first error is no big deal. The serial port, ttyS1, is used to key the PTT on your rig. It says you don't have permission to access the serial port. You can ignore the error and use VOX. If you want to use PTT, then as root you need to run a chmod command: chmod 666 /dev/ttyS1 The second error is a show stopper, since twpsk can't find the code file. This file should have been installed into the correct place during the install process. Did you run "make install" as root, or was did you use a RPM? -- 73, Ted - wa0eir http://wa0eir.ham.org > On Sat, 2006-09-30 at 22:20 -0500, Billie Erin Walsh wrote: > > > Well.....................................................

aprsd

I was wondering if anybody has got aprsd-2.5-16 rpm to install properly on 10.1 I downloaded the rpm off DG7GT web site and have not got it to work properly. I have only been able to find 2.1.5b9 rpm that installs and works on any Suse product. Maybe I am just doing something wrong, thanks anyway VE3TEJ Jim -- No virus found in this outgoing message.

Sound cards & 10.1
by Richard Bown 09 Aug '06

09 Aug '06

Hi is anyone using a M-audio Delta 44 or delta 66 sound card with Suse 10.1 or earlier versions, If so which version, which kernel and which version of Gnome, if used ? The reason for asking on this group is that is the most chosen sound card for interfacing to a radio with SDR software. Richard g8jvm

Audio problems
by Richard Bown 06 Aug '06

06 Aug '06

Apps , Amoarok, xmms, alsaplayer Realplayer, Kaffeine(non-functional),Audacious, Gxine(non-functional),Beep media player Sound card M-Audio delta66 Hi I'm starting to get a bit despondent with Suse 10.1. Playback of mp3 and ogg files starts off at about twice normal playback speed, Any attempt at trying to alter the on card clock reduces the playback speed to about 1/4 of normal speed. This is happening to any thing on the internal digital mixer. Any audio routed physically in to the audio card seems OK, as for the second audio card VIA8235, I haven't been able to route pcm through that. The delta 66 is not a cheap card and its needed for SDR work, its not like its never worked, the previous distro it all worked fine. Has anyone got a delta 66 or delta-44 working with Suse 10.1 ?

Hi Richard, why you don't use my version of gpredict? You can find it on the (unofficial) suse-ham repository... (http://dg7gt.osth.de/). There you will find binaries and sources for SUSE 10.1... If you have an older version of SuSE, it would be possible to take the SRPMS and rebuild it. 73 de Tim, DG7GT >Thanks for all the replies >the entry was already in /etc/ld.so.conf, so its missing something >else :( > >73 Richard > > > > >-- >To unsubscribe, e-mail: suse-ham-e-unsubscribe(a)suse.com >For additional commands, e-mail: suse-ham-e-help(a)suse.com >

wild cards in symbolic links
by richard bown 29 Jul '06

29 Jul '06

Hi AS some of the programs I need , and have to compile, are looking for their libs in /usr/lib , where as the gnome libs are in /opt/gnome/lib. Is it possible to use a symlink with wildcard to point from /usr/lib to/opt/gnome/lib for anything starting with libgn ?? Trying to get gpredict to build. TIA Richard

Hello Curt, if you have a xastir.spec file for 10.0, please just send it to me, and I will compile the package and integrate it into the repository. But you will need to be a little bit patient, because the next 4 days I'm on holidays... 73 de Tim, DG7GT P.S.: I will drop a notice on the suse-ham-e list when new packages are ready for download....
