Hello Ramiro,


xlinrad crashes under Debian Sarge and shows the following Segmentation Fault debbuged with gdb. I send it to you just in case it gives you some clues. Is the 890=0x37A port a parallel port register? What is it used for under Linrad?

Linrad uses the parallel port to control the WSE hardware.
For this reason one has to run Linrad as root, something that also makes it easier to use svgalib.

Oh my good, I was running xlinrad as a normal user, what a mistake. It works as root! I asumed that root was neccesary only for svgalib.... :-(

Sorry for that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I will elaborate later, I must go work know.
Thanks!!!!!!!!!! and Sorry!!!!!!!!!!!
