[linux-audio-user] Buying an audio interface for my notebook

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Carlo,

I use an HDSP under Linux, as do many many others, and am quite 
satisfied with it. Actually, I could not live without it.

That said, I have to warn you that it is not always easy to get working. 
Generally, most problems getting the HDSP working with Linux come from 
bad cardbus controller chipsets. Avoid Ricoh cardbus chips for sure, as 
RME totslly UNrecommends them. I have also seen trouble with Oxygen 
chipsets. Look at your laptop to see what you have, and if necessary ask 
on this list or on the RME newsgroup.

Good luck,
d.
