Dear all, I had a look at he live CD a few months ago, liked the concept, and I decided to set up a Linux Laptop for it. Now, after about one weekend of compiling :-), Gentoo on the laptop works fine (soundcard, Rig Interface, etc....) and the latest versions of fldigi and PSKMail also don't complain any more. Since others might run into the same problem: I had a hard time to figure out that I needed to remove the "$" from the file names in Edit -> Configuration of PSKMail, otherwise PSKMail and fldigi would not interact. There seem to be few servers running at the moment ... is there one that I could reach from JO43XO? Cheers, Joachim
