Tried this combination last August. Needless to I cannned it after
a couple of weeks and one very frustrated person (Remember, jtc).
Settled on a reasonable explanation: the Future Domain setup was just
plain frustrating (if i remember, correctly, they seem to have the
AT & GT versions of their software, but don't quote me.); the 
Miniscribe was not exactly deligthful, either, with respect to
the Future Domain. As well, at the time we had an early version
of the ACER motherboard that had patches, many.
