Hello Bamiga2002,

thanks a lot for testing the bunch of libs. As I already expected, it seems to be a problem with my FindTask() and FindPort() instructions in the Open() routine, Probably, these functions, which are all protected by a Forbid()/Permit() pair, are switching off the multitasking for a too long time, and FindTask() disables even the interrupt handling, which could cause the trouble. So, I took out the FindTask() instructions at least now, and hope that this can solve the problem. Let's see first if it works already, before I try to change more.
