Well, I got the UA-101 cause I heard that the Edirols are perfectly supported (btw the FA-101 with FFADO is working flawlessly). However, it turned out that up to the previous alsa, it wasn't supported, and when it did in the latest alsa version, playback was corrupted (not recording!) due to some internal working of the card. The latest driver (separate module than snd-usb-audio module) fixed this issue and the card is working now, however at least for me it loses connection to the device randomly, after 1 min or 1 hour of operation. Not exactly ready for live performance...

Anyway, Ed I'd say check out the FA-66, see if you can borrow one to
double check that the linux firewire drivers are working, whatever the name for the latest firewire audio drivers are.
Well...herein lies my problem. The computer has no Firewire connection and no PCMCIA slot - so no FA. I have an FA101 (which nearly torched my set entirely in Sao Paulo with Ubuntu) but the computer I was using got stolen, and my newest and best comp has no Firewire, and so it's USB only for me!
Ironically, since I am now using Pure Dyne, the FA101 would probably work, since the whole system is optimized to run PD/SC/Audio
A friend of mine has the UA-101. I'll see if that works OK with Jack before I buy anything.
PS has anyone tried one of the Lexicon USB sound interfaces with PD rt linux?
