Gervase,

I used PSK31 quite a lot when I was running Windows, and really enjoyed it. So 
when I changed to Linux, I wanted to still run the mode.

Just before I went QRT a couple of years ago, I tried gpsk31 as supplied by 
SUSE. If I remember correctly, I could not get it to work, having error 
messages that it could not find my sound card. So I tried the program KPSK 
and, again if I remember correctly (old age makes one forgetful!) I had 
better success with that program. But I became inactive before I really did 
anything with it.

Suggest you try KPSK. Get it from Sourceforge.

Hope this helps.
