Hi, > USB Audio is a standard. Sadly this is only true for usb 1.x. Most usb 2.0 audiocards don't work under linux. I am not sure if there is even 1 ^^ (Edirol ua101's playback is glitchy) Felix 2009/11/3 James Shatto <Shadow_7@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>: > On Mon, 2 Nov 2009 20:42:48 +0100 > "Y.A.

Only one caveat though as it wont default to card 0 and be your default card. Since you probably have a motherboard with onboard sound. Configure accordingly. I have a USB M-Audio Mobile Pre and it works fine. Although web browsers don't seem to use it properly even though I have it configured to card 0. I've never had a problem recording from it though. Not really the best audio option, but loads better than most stock soundcards. > > HTH, > James > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Come build with us!
