Hi Stan & All on the alsa discussion list. /Good news,/ I figured out the problem... Looking in the Synaptic Package Manager in the "All" mode ('unsupported by Ubuntu'), I noticed some alsa files which were /**not**/ installed... most namely: 'alsa firmware' & alsa-firmware loaders.' When I clicked on the 'alsa firmware' the info window indicated that this was what loaded firmware for Echo Audio cards (among some others)! One other file got downloaded with these packages: 'fx load.' I wonder why these were not included in the Echomixer (et al) drivers & program package... I think it needs to be (novice opinion warning :) ). Thanks so much for your consideration to help. I have not yet tested all faculties of the drivers/card, etc. in Ubuntu, but I will in the next few days. Regards, Henry stan wrote: > Henry W.
