[AG-TECH] RAT KDE4 Issues

Hi Todd,

Glad to her things have gotten better.

Ah ok.

Oh ok - yes it did seem like a iptables issue - I wasn't sure if it
was some KDE specific firewall thing (I have admit I'm not a big KDE
user).

Hmm ok - I'll look into that.

The issue with the default device maybe due to the fact that your
system may have set up ALSA dmix on the default device (by looking at
your error messages above) - which RAT doesn't work so well with (dmix
is tricky beast to set up correctly for bi-directional operation).

Thanks for getting back to me,

Piers.
