I got several devices that are white-listed, some do ship with Linux drivers. E.g. I owned a FAX white-listed device, but with a shipset that wasn't listed anywhere and it appeared to be a white-listed device. There was no way to know that there's a "unkonwn" chipset. I own three RFID-card readers of the same type that ship with a Linux driver, but they don't work. I own a KORG nanoKONTROL (the old one). It's known that old KORG software versions work with wine, but the new version and old available version by KORG don't work with wine. I own an integrated ATI graphics that should work 3D accelerated with Linux, but it doesn't, hence I bought a NVIDIA, still a PITA. "OT: I choose a distro that didn't force me to use PulseAudio and an upgrade today will force me to install it." Resume: Linux is the best choice for an OS, but be careful. If you aren't sure, avoid buying hardware. I bought a RME HDSPe AIO. It's usable, but I miss entire support for this card. If there's any doubt for the device you wish to buy, don't buy it. Use Linux only, never use Windows ;), but get a device that REALLY is known as supported by the Linux distro version you prefer. 2 Cents, Ralf _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
