Debian, psk31 & ac97 audio



Greetings:

I am stumped as to why none of the Debian psk31 programs will run on my 
850MHz laptop.  I am testing twpsk and if I click on the send icon, my 
terminal reports:

tx: partial write (128/256)...
tx error:: Resource temporarily unavailable
tx: partial write (128/256)...
tx error:: Resource temporarily unavailable

This is what I get running G-psk31:
jaye@ByrdsPortable:~$ gpsk31 
Using full duplex mode!

Is this a good thing or a bad thing?

There are errors for every psk31 program that is installable for Woody.  To 
get my sound card working, I had to install the via82cxxx_audio which in turn 
installs the ac97_codec which installs the soundcore module.  I can not 
remove the ac97_codec.  Other programs use the sound card and it functions 
well in playback mode.  Another thing is that lspci reports this device as:
Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. AC97 Audio Controller 
(rev 40)

It am not sure if this card will fully function under Linux.  Any info is 
much appreciated.
