Klunk...that's the noise that things made when everything fell into place
while reading your message! It isn't your soundcard causing the problems
reported below. It looks to me that you either don't have access to, haven't
specified, or have specified the wrong /dev/ttyS port....
From your tests with gpsk31, it appears that you have the soundcard OK
("using full duplex mode"=good). For what its worth, I've also got AC97
audio on my desktop machine & it works OK.
Check that your permissions are OK w/your tty ports & that you've specified
the right one.
twpsk is a fine program...2.1 is available now, but not sure if any .debs
have been rolled; my guess is no. find it at: http://radio.linux.org.au
