I hadn't realised the O/P was running: yoshimi & This creates a conflict as the GUI starts, then the CLI tries to start but has already lost access, so stalls. I had forgotten about this and hadn't been able to think of a way of dealing with it. One way out of it is the start with: yoshimi -c & Then permanently disable the CLI from the settings menu. Alternatively do an ordinary GUI start or even an ordinary CLI start and then set the switch. We could have set the first-time default for no CLI but I'm very reluctant to do that as it makes it harder for a blind user to work out what's happening. -- Will J Godfrey http://www.musically.me.uk Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
