I have tried several kernels, and several alsa builds. I'm currently using a kernel from the Fedora 3 test series, 2.6.9-1.640, and alsa 1.0.7RC2, including alsa-firmware and hdsploader. It seems the system identifies the device correctly: lspci includes: 03:04.0 Multimedia audio controller: Xilinx Corporation RME Hammerfall DSP (rev 0a) lsmod |grep snd yields: snd_hdsp 57037 0 snd_rawmidi 29413 1 snd_hdsp snd_seq_device 10573 1 snd_rawmidi snd_pcm_oss 59257 0 snd_mixer_oss 21313 1 snd_pcm_oss snd_pcm 109769 2 snd_hdsp,snd_pcm_oss snd_timer 28617 1 snd_pcm snd_page_alloc 12881 2 snd_hdsp,snd_pcm snd_hwdep 12105 1 snd_hdsp snd 62089 8 snd_hdsp,snd_rawmidi,snd_seq_device,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_pcm,snd_timer,snd_hwdep soundcore 12257 1 snd However, aconnect -li doesn't see it: ALSA lib seq_hw.c:446:(snd_seq_hw_open) open /dev/snd/seq failed: No such file or directory can't open sequencer Furthermore, if I stop alsa and run hdsploader by hand, I get a kernel oops and the system, which is otherwise very stable, becomes unstable and requires a reboot.
