Ya, I didn't try out the Linux tools for it.

But my music recording software is Windows specific, and I generally like keeping things in one place. I have Linux, Solaris etc. on other machines here, but keeping my consoles all working is a pain. But I know there are many people using AVR under Linux. So give it a try. Like you said, you may need to download sources though. Warren
