DecTalk External (decext) testers wanted!

[Okash Khawaja]

Hi Keith,

I'm using arch linux which keeps it's kernels fairly up to date.

If the kernel version isn't too old, i.e. 4.5 or later then that should be fine. Still I think it will be worth commenting out all three config options on your system and then trying.

Cheers,
Okash
