I have run freeamp from xterm, zip new info, just locks, HOWEVER I noticed
that it sometimes freezes at exactly the same time as my modem droppes the
line. I have a win modem with driver dependency problems. I have had a RS232
full hardware modem on order for 2-3 Weeks from amazon !! I am hopefull the
two are linked and my freeamp will become stable when I remove the winmodem
driver.
If other people are using freeamp AOK then this is my pet theory.
