Here ya go: # lspci -v | grep -i firewire -A12 03:01.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Ricoh Co Ltd R5C832 IEEE 1394 Controller (prog-if 10 [OHCI]) Subsystem: Dell XPS M1210 Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 19 Memory at ef9fd800 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=2K] Capabilities: [dc] Power Management version 2 Kernel driver in use: ohci1394 Kernel modules: ohci1394 I really have no answer why it's worked out for me so well. Maybe the latency setting is a factor? A long time ago I tried adjusting that in 8.04 to get it to work but it made no difference. The FFADO wiki has said it doesn't work since Ubuntu Studio 8.04. It didn't work in 8.04 for me so I tried 8.10 and it worked great. 9.04 works too. However, I prefer Fedora/CCRMA now. YMMV. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
