It would be super duper awesome, if a fixed image with this kernel would be released. I’m also having the issue and for some odd reason I can’t update the Kernel manually with the instructions above. It just doesn’t get thru, not even the backing up the kernel part (the default blokaslabs pw doesn’t work and I haven’t changed it). Also the github.com url can’t be resolved, so I can’t even download the kernel.
Ideas highly appreciated here, as it’s becoming super frustrating as I think MODEP is THE application for a PiSound-RPI setup and the reason I bought PiSound to begin with. But MIDI just hangs it all the time, thus rendering it totally useless.
