[Xastir] Fix the Interface error

[Skyler F]

How do I check if the soundmodem process is running? I just did the apt-get
install soundmodem.

I just installed sound modem because there was some documentation. If there
is documentation on how to set it up, as long as it works, I will get
direwolf.

One of the reasons I ;like soundmodem is because it had a hidraw driver for
PTT, which I am trying to get working with my CM108 sound card chip. I also
like it because it has an easy config menu that I choose all of the
settings.

By the way, I get the same error independent of what interface I select on
the menu ( although that might be expected because I don't have any other
hard ware plugged in)
