Re: RME BabyFace question

Hello,

thank you very much for your kind reply, I will try to be more specific;

I'm using the old LTS Ubuntu (10.4 Lucid Lynx).
I saw here http://www.rme-audio.de/forum/viewtopic.php?id=16104: 
"Since firmware 200 the Babyface operates in three different modes: driver-based USB 2, stand-alone mode, and Class Compliant mode. The latter describes a standard that is natively supported by operating systems like Windows, Mac OSX and Linux. No proprietary drivers are required, the device will be directly recognized when CC mode is activated. Obviously, native features will be limited in comparison to those provided by the RME driver set. For example there will be no (Total) Mix and no effects."
(as Clemens said)
 It should allow the BabyFace to work with Linux without specific driver, just as generic AD/DA converter (whiwh is exactly what I want).


 Eventually I followed the instructions here http://www.rme-audio.de/download/cc_mode_babyface_e.pdf without success. Here is what shows up after a dmesg command (at the end):

[ 3589.920289] usb 1-7.2: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 11
[ 3590.030407] usb 1-7.2: config 1 has an invalid descriptor of length 0, skipping remainder of the config
[ 3590.031021] usb 1-7.2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice

I then saw here that ALSA seems to have a bug: http://www.mail-archive.com/alsa-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg28935.html

Unfortunately, after the change I had this message coming with the dmesg:

[   54.310238] usb 1-7.2: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 6
[   54.420381] usb 1-7.2: config 1 has an invalid descriptor of length 0, skipping remainder of the config
[   54.420975] usb 1-7.2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
[   54.480227] usbcore: registered new interface driver snd-usb-audio


As a test I listen to the headphone out of the BabyFace but I never heard anything so far.
