If I understood him correctly, he needed to load the fireware from within a Windows boot and then boot into Linux (without turning off the machine of course). Perhaps I misunderstood him.

You said above that "You have IO, you can adjust the input levels, switch standby and disconnect the box. So everything works as you would expect it." I'm assuming here that you're talking about the driver as you said that that was finished. However, what you've just said above seems to contradict this as it seems you're saying that you can't do anything with just the driver - you need the user space tools?? Thanks again for your efforts, Martin _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
