Hey Vincent,
Thanks for the reply.

I tried dmx512 as you suggested but the dmx4linux patched drivers did
not compile.
I get this:

I looked in the README.dmx4linux.txt and other README files and all
seems to be in order.

Is it possible that my kernel is the problem? ( 2.6.27-9-generic )

Apologies if I am missing something really obvious

Thanks again
