hi all
i wrote to alsa user a little while ago with a problem concerning my
midisport 8x8. i've since discovered an interesting piece of info, so i
thought i'd ask again...

the midisport i have is reported as being hardware version 1.33 by the
midisport control panel under windows xp (where it works fine). i looked
in the midisport_fw loader, and it seems to only know about hardware
versions 1.10 and 1.21. here are the entries in /var/log/messages when
it is powered up:

Apr 13 14:49:28 [kernel] hub.c: connect-debounce failed, port 1 disabled
Apr 13 14:49:30 [kernel] hub.c: new USB device 00:1f.4-1, assigned
address 9
Apr 13 14:49:30 [kernel] usb.c: USB device 9 (vend/prod 0x763/0x1031) is
not claimed by any active driver.
Apr 13 14:49:33 [/etc/hotplug/usb/midisport_fw] load

Apr 13 14:49:33 [kernel] usb.c: USB disconnect on device 00:1f.4-1

Apr 13 14:49:34 [kernel] hub.c: new USB device 00:1f.4-1, assigned

Apr 13 14:49:39 [kernel] usb_control/bulk_msg: timeout
                - Last output repeated 4 times -
Apr 13 14:50:00 [kernel] hub.c: new USB device 00:1f.4-1, assigned
address 11
Apr 13 14:50:05 [kernel] usb_control/bulk_msg: timeout

the midisport never shows up in /proc/asound/cards. i also have a
midisport 8x8 at work (hardware version 1.21) which i brought home to
check i had everything set up ok. here is what it reports to
/var/log/messages:

Apr 13 14:53:12 [kernel] hub.c: connect-debounce failed, port 1 disabled
Apr 13 14:53:14 [kernel] hub.c: new USB device 00:1f.4-1, assigned
address 12
Apr 13 14:53:14 [kernel] devfs_register(unknown): could not append to
parent, err: -17
Apr 13 14:53:17 [usb.agent] missing kernel or user mode driver
snd-usb-audio 

that doesn't look good, but it shows up in /proc/asound/cards, and i can
get midi in and out of it.

does anyone have any idea what's going on? i tried asking m-audio
support what the differences between hardware versions 1.21 and 1.33
are, but they just replied that they don't support linux.
any help would be appreciated!
ian
