Thanks for hfitz for response.With sound all problem had solved with newest driver (40 Mb pack to download(!)), since that old was no so old, from winter...With online crafts, I checked "show AI crafts" in main menu, go online flight... But only 1 human was there, and he very quickly fly away from ksfo. I tried to chase him, seeing red dot in the sky - and then he may be applyed FULL throttle and I lost him.So I think that it is important to check "AI crafts" checkbox.cheers ;)

So, if you are interested in getting multiplayer to work for you, you may want to check out the "how to help us help you/troubleshooting" section in the FlightGear wiki:http://wiki.flightgear.org/flightgear_wiki...ooting_ProblemsThere are various possible reasons, so it is important to really provide a maximum amount of information about your setup (FG version, startup parameters, runtime parameters, router/firewall setup etc).
