Linux audio Users mailing list is the best spot. i spent many weeks working mine out and i couldn't have done it without the LAU. it shouldnit be that hard, the main things you need are
- alsa drivers
- alsa tools
there should be a program called hdsploader that you need to invoke each time you start up your machine. i use gentoo and i have a init-script that i use to get it loaded each time.
the most important thing to remember is that you have _either_ the HDSP module built in the kernel OR have the module and drivers build by the alsa packages, not both. i got stuck on that for a while and made me feel totally stoopid. another thing to check is whether or not you have one of those crappy Ricoh cardbus's. they have proved very troublesome with the hammerfalls. i have one and it took me ages to work it out.
the hammerfall HSDP is tricky at times but worth it in the end.
good luck.

Hi,
Sorry for the off-topic post.
I have a recent Debian install on my laptop and am having a hell of a hard time getting my hammerfall HDSP to work with ALSA and jack. I found several pages on the web with conflicting information about how to set it up.
I would really appreciate if someone can point me in the direction of up to date and correct how-tos or advice on how to set it up.
Many thanks,
