Right, this is part of SuSE 8.2.

Mounting the DAT recorder?! Sounds interesting... ;-)

What I want to have is a 1:1 copy of the audio data of a DAT deck. For
this I use its SPDIF-out and plug it to the SPDIF-in of the Audiophile.
Using envy24control I can route the signal to the cards internal mixer
or to its outputs. But how can I record it to an audio file?

Recording with Audacity results in a mute file. In its preferences I
found the sole option /dev/dsp as recording device.

I am determined to read more about it if you can tell me *what* to
read...

Ciao,
