the alsa driver looks to be a complete driver that has nothing to do with any of the usb standards based drivers for audio or midi. one of the copyright holders on the alsa driver has an @caiaq.de email address. http://caiaq.de doesn't have much info, but it says "hardware development". I'm guessing these guys (caiaq.de) developed this hardware and the drivers. why it doesn't use the usb audio and midi standards though, I cannot answer. -- jake...@sdf.lonestar.org SDF Public Access UNIX System - http://sdf.lonestar.org
