that will be correct *after* I update them into SVN.

You can follow the upgrade from SVN procedure in the 'support'
section of the allstarlink.org website.

So...(I'm a hacker, not a programmer)...as I understand 
this, if I get the new sources into my limey box I can compile them with the new 
source? 
 
I have a slackware linux laptop where I made my own limey 
one time, and it worked fine (on a D201 board before you folkis combined that 
with the D945 stuff)
 
The ACID distro I downloaded on Saturday has to be right, 
it works like a champ on the printer port. Also, in the docs it does not mention 
that pin 11 is available, and I peeked at the source and found that it was, and 
it did work. The controller I married it to has COS on pin 11, I didn't feel 
like soldering.
 
OK, Jim, thanks for the info/insight.

  That's an interesting question.

Normally, what we do is 
  take a snapshot of the SVN sources and make the 'files.tar.gz' file 
  which
contains the release version of the sources. This file is used both 
  for ACID and Limey Linux. The ACID
version of this has been released 
  already. The 1.1.5 version of Limey Linux is still in the "needs to 
  be
verified" (without the Asterisk stuff first) stage. So, it *is* possible 
  to make these changes "appear" in the
Limey distro. However, I am going to 
  have to talk with Steve, WA6ZFT and see how he wants to 
  handle
this.

  Thank you, sir. Are you doing a new Limey store-bought 
  tgz file, just add "dd"? 
   
  I tried rolling my own, and modified the kernel config 
  for pp compiled in, not a module, and still didn't fly. I gave up and stuck 
  with dsp decode of pl and cos. But I also suspect that the "motorboating" goes 
  away if the software isn't doing all that other stuff, and just looking for a 
  line to wiggle high ot low, etc. THAT allows easy interface to many radios. 
  
   
  Take care.

    Well, it would pretty much appear that my suspicion is correct. 
    The PP input
stuff NEVER worked under Limey Linux, and its pretty obvious 
    why. I will
update the chan_usbradio and chan_simpleusb code to reflect 
    this.
