thank you for your reply! how do i know if the firmware is properly loaded? (well... apparently it isn't.....) i tried to run the usx2yloader: "no US-X2Y-compatible cards found". i'm afraid that this is way over my understanding. i installed all of the alsa stuff but the page doesn't mention anythin about fxload. what is it? i'm really glueless... /petri Rui Nuno Capela wrote: >Hi, > >Have you checked that the firmware is being properly loaded?
