Hi there, been lurking a while and reading and have run into this problem trying to initialize my Multiface (ubuntu dapper) hdsploader - firmware loader for RME Hammerfall DSP cards Looking for HDSP + Multiface or Digiface cards : Card 0 : NVidia CK804 with ALC850 at 0xd3103000, irq 225 Card 1 : RME Hammerfall DSP at 0xd3000000, irq 58 Upload firmware for card hw:1 Hwdep ioctl error on card hw:1 : Input/output error. Card 2 : MPU-401 UART at 0x330, irq 10 and pardon my noobness where did Card 2 come from? Thanks in advance M __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
