I am not sure yet I'll do the win2k thing. I thought that Postgres
*might* compile under Win2k, but from the docs I grepped that only the
*client* tools will compile. Now that would become a double project:
running OpenACS (3/4?) and Postgres on separate machines /and/ running
Open ACS on Win2k. Too much for a lunch time experiment (which I had
in mind). It would be kinda cool, though.
About the sound card, I do not thing that was the problem. The old
(2.2) kernel had no problems recognising the (PCI) ES1371 based card.
I guess it's just 'general progress' on the sound side if GNU/Linux.
