Ciao Lorenzo, thank you!
ok give me the specs of your expresscard whenever you can...
The card is a Digitus DS-31201-1:

Careful! Take note of the -1 at the end (not shown on the website)
because there's also a similar card of the same brand with same part
number but -2 at the end. It has a VIA chipset, which some report to
also work well but for which I also had bad reports from people I've
talked to (who by the way are not on linux).
I'll send you in private the link to the shop in Rome which I got it
from and still seems to have it.

Hello everyone,
I'm considering the opportunity to improve my home linux studio based
buying this laptop
http://www.garlach44.eu/it/notebook-galway-15-pollici (from a small
italian company) with Ubuntu pre-installed (No Microsoft licenses to
pay!!).
This machine has an express card 54 slot.
I'd like to use a firewire sound card (echo audiofire 8) so i should
buy a firewire express card 54 adaptor.
Does anybody use it& could tell me if it works properly ?
To get my FA 101 to work probably I eventually bought an expresscard
adaptor with a Texas Instruments (TI) chipset. The internal firewire
port of my hp notebook simply wouldn't work. A cheapo expresscard would
work but I was getting any number of xruns and zombifications even with
all of the RT voodoo.
It's not very easy to find out the chipset on these cards because it's
not usually advertised. I got mine in a store in Rome, if you like I can
give you the exact specs when I get back home (because the brand I got -
Digitus - has two models one with TI and one without).
Lorenzo.
Can you suggest me some models ?
Thanks in advance
Nicola
