On my laptop (Dell D820), the card worked really well with a few driver
parameters, 3 periods and certain mixer settings (=selecting an input source
for capturing). Alas, this was with alsa 1.0.14 (or something). I'm
currently unable to run jackd with a newer version of alsa.

I'm not bothered by that though, it works well enough for youtube. I have a
real sound interface for serious work. I have done interesting measurements
with the card though. Like getting more noise on the inputs with mixer
levels at 0 than with raising the mixer levels just a bit above it. That and
the AD unit totally misbehaving when running in 192kHz.
