thewade - How do I get the duo to work with linux 2.6?
Frank Barknecht - No way at all with kernel 2.6.
Oh, shoot!
Well, what is the ultimate audio device for linux then? Obviously this question has been asked before, but what if I ask what are the manufacturers that consistantly provide solid linux audio hardware? I assume then that midiman 2x2 will not run in 2.6 either, right?
What are the cool usb devices, and what are the cool manufacturers then? Is there a list of this kind of thing? Alsa said that the duo would work, and it did with 2.4, so I imagine that any list they would have would be unrelyable for 2.6 specifics...
Thanks for the help FB, that saves me a bunch of time! Means I have to spend more oney though...
thanks, -thewade

Seemingly, whatever works well with 2.4.x kernels. :(
I use SBLive personally; just upgraded one of my machines to 2.6.3, but I haven't gone about setting up realtime capabilities yet. More on that later, after wednesday, when I have completed my upcoming midterms (AAAAAAAGH!)

No, the 2x2 works fine, AFAIK. Also some other M-Audio devices do work, but not the Quattro and the Audiophile USB and - according to your logfile excerpt - the Duo. ("Invalid alt settings" is a typical error in this case.)
What are the cool usb devices, and what are the cool manufacturers then?
I liked the Terratec Phase 26 in my tests, which is of similar quality as the duo. There are a lot of cool USB devices, that still work on 2.6.
I'll probably buy the Terratec Aureon USB.
(BTW: Anyone interested in my Quattro? Very good condition, unopened driver CD. Contact me privatly. ;)

See above for the small number of known un-2.6 devices. I'll contact the alsa-devs to update their soundcard matrix.
ciao
