so - yesterday the soundblaster pcmcia card came and
I installed it and am testing it out. Initially, everything
was working great - so I left it up over night. When I
came in, in the morning, rat had frozen again - as it was
doing with the realtech card - I disabled and re-enabled and
the freeze came much faster. I then noted that I was
still using the rat 4.22... I thought I had copied the latest rat
into bin and the zip folder.
So, I tried the latest UCL Rat 4.3 solo - when I run that by itself
(connecting to one of the NCSA ag3 venues) it works fine
so I tried to copy over the rats in bin and in the zip folder again
but the venue still starts up a 4.2 version of rat - is
there another instance somewhere which I need to copy
the new rats into?
Also, I notice that the default configuration always lists
my video service but it always comes up as disabled - no matter
how many times i save the config after enabling
