I'm not fluent in the CARDBUS architecture. How does Echo handle this multiple bridge issue in Windows? Or is it handled by a separate bridge driver? If so, perhaps we need to add another layer to the ALSA architecture to handle different bridges. I think that cardbus components not specific to the Echo Audio card should be handled by another team. I'm more an applications developer, but I'll support you in whatever way I can. -Jan On Tue, 02 Nov 2004 09:35:51 +0100 (CET), Giuliano Pochini wrote > On 01-Nov-2004 Yon Mercury wrote: > > Dear ALSA-listers: > > > > This from Echo Audio, in response to my inquiry about an Indigo IO driver: > > > > I hope we can get a good low-end low latency laptop solution soon-- those > > RME boards are expensive! > > I'm the one who developed the ALSA driver.
