Yes, I believe you are right on every count, and I beleive that my awe64 isn't fully functional, with this clarifications. I'll have to get home to test the midi... Ummm looking through your mini howto on the awe I only ran into one problem. I don't have a /etc/init.d/boot. Where would I add that little bit of script into if not there? I am fairly new to linux and not sure of the order it runs all the boot scripts, or most names for that matter. Thank you, Ehren -- Unsubscribe? mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] < /dev/null
