Hi Gene, I think that the complaint should be aimed at distributions, really. If they choose to ship foo they should make sure it works. Which they tend to do to some (large) extent. In the past all of us had to realize that the minute we wanted to deviate from what a distribution considered to be a "standard system" (like in your case 2 sound devices) we were pretty much on our own. I might add that the ensuing research is only sometimes painful. Usually it is just a hell of a ride, isn't it :) So I think there is a huge demand for more and better integration on the distribution side, for user tools to make not-so-standard stuff just work as well. Which is A Lot Of Work, right? We'll get there, slowly, I'm sure.
