johannes,

uurrrggggggg! no dice. i tried flashing the hardware with revision 10 in win, powering down, booting to linux, and even reinstalling all ALSA drivers, libs, utils....

nothing. is there something really wrong with my config files, or is it possible a problem with my pcmcia?

Quoting Johannes Taelman Johannes.Taelman@rug.ac.be:

there's an update history: http://www.rme-audio.de/english/techinfo/updatehd.htm Nothing too bad imho. I'm using the multiface for one year now, long before this firmware update.

Don't shake for the flash update. It's fine if you don't reboot your computer while it's running. Just make sure that you have no unstable programs running that could cause a bluescreen. And even if it messes up, I think you could get it covered by guarantee, with the nice people at RME.

'lspci' showed that the card was there, while there are reports of running hdsp+alsa configs. And I remembered that I did a flash upgrade a couple of months ago.

I kindda got used to work around bugs. Eg. to use ASIO in PD at 96kHz, you have to play a wave file at 96kHz in another program while starting PD. Otherwise PD misdetects the number of channels and crashes. But actually I think RME is among the best. With an Layla24+asio+pd it shifts channels each time you close PD. Only rebooting gets it back to the first channels. Very annoying...
