Hi Ralf,

Thanks for all the input and suggestions but I am not very experienced with
linux and building my own kernel would shure take me a while ...
I do not understand the difference in building a kernel and recompiling the
alsa-drivers as the latter seems to include building the kernel for what I
found out so far. Maybe correct me if I'm wrong and it is easier to just
compile the drivers.

For now I just want to use my new soundcard so unfortunately I will have to
switch back to ubuntustudio which includes a 2.6.31 kernel in the latest
release.
This might be a reason for other people too to switch distros, it takes me
half an hour to make a new install but it would take me days now to get my
setup working when starting to build the kernel myself...

Hopefully there will be a 2.6.32-rt patch soon and a new release of 64studio
with it. In fact I made better audio experiences with 64studio and also like
it more than ubuntustudio for being more lightweight and straightforward.

Thanks,
Martin
