Lee cites this in a folowing post and although I'm a MDK user, I'm not familiar with Udev at all. It's a new thingy. And I think 10.1 is the first release to use it in MDK? Try looking at your modprobe.conf and seeing if there is anything funky going on there as a result of turning off your card the first time; "hard drake" can do some odd things at times in detecting new hardware...or what it perceives as new. >I'm using a different monitor and a different PS/2 mouse than I >was when MIDI worked.

Having not thought about that...let me not think about this; I doubt your mouse or monitor had bumpkiss to do with anything here but I can only be 94.81% sure about that. (eh-hem) >-- >Kevin > > > > >
