I have an 8100 (Maestro 3i). The ALSA support is basicly OK, but things like jack cause some problems with CPU use, I haven't been able to track it down, but it might be something simple. The OSS emaultion layer and simplex playback seem to work fine however. I suspect that the output only alsa driver for jack would solve a lot of my problems, and the mic/line input on the M3 is terrible anyway. My medium term plan is to write a raw ethernet/IEEE-1394 driver+client pair for jack that allows you to shunt float audio data over to the laptop from a desktop (with some useful audio hardware in it) and back again. I will probably start with raw ethernet packets as I know how to do that, it may have latency problems though. I have tried IP packets (with ll patched linux 2.4 and 3com 905's) and that was no good. The driver would run on the laptop and provide sync'd audio to the jack clients and the client would run on the desktop machine as a sync slave of the audio hardware. - Steve _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-devel
