Apparently for him the new driver was working. However, for me it still is not. The driver starts, and Jack will run, but the hardware actually sends no audio. I have written Paul a couple of times asking some questions but have not received a response. Perhaps Paul never actually listened to the card, or perhaps he has different firmware and his works. I cannot tell as of today. I'd like to find out if anyone has managed to get actually get sound out of this with the new driver and, if so, with what version of firmware? I see that Johannes wrote something on the Alsa Sound Matrix page about downgrading firmware. Unfortunately I'd have to move the card to a box with Windows, or install Windows on this box to try this. The note is a bit old, and is also unclear about which DSP card he was doing this for, so I won't do this unless someone can really tell me it works in my case. Again, I know Thomas is trying to work on this, but I'm confused as to why Paul would tell me it works? Just trying to move forward after a long time with no audio. BTW - Thomas's hdspconf is a nice little tool that is very helpful with debugging. If you're not using it, compile it! j#|@ johannes.taelman(a)rug.ac.be Wednesday, 12 February 2003 In order to make alsa-hdsp recognize the hdsp I had to downgrade the firmware of the card(bus) to revision 10. There is a flash update tool available at http://www.rme-audio.de/english/download/drivers_archive.htm You'll have to do that in windows...
