Ok I downloaded Ubuntu, I'll let you know as soon as i'll have done some
testing. BTW my device used to work on ubuntu (12.10
I think) I removed pulseaudio and selected alsa output on gmusicbrowser.
Lately it stopped working for some reason.
My main OS is now debian so i wanted to make it work on it, but i'l follow
your advice, we'll try to make it working on ubuntu 13.10 first, then we'll
see.
