>And what about PCMCIA sound card? i heard that there is a RME one, but i >think it's very expensive? And what about it's support with ALSA? yes. i use the rme multiface carbus with my laptop and it works great! recent alsa updates (v 1.0.5..?) have done great things for this combo. before i was using it with its pci card in a desktop version. the rme multiface + cardbus was ~ $850 when i bought it a couple years ago. might be cheaper now. running planet-ccrma, by the way, in both of these. still testing gentoo ppc on my apple laptop. > > Maybe there is firewire Hardware out there ? ? >There is some firewire hardward. For example : >http://www.m-audio.com/index.php? >do=products.focus&ID=77b8b59a677defc67c40d33428b4014a > >But i think that this one doesn't work under Linux .It's my problem.... >Is anybody had an experience with this kind of firewire hardware? i believe every firewire audio vendor has a different way of parsing the data packets, so developers would need every vendor's specs... and most don't release them. -- _________________________________________________________________ Jonathan Segel -- MAGNETIC -- PO Box 460816 S.F.
