Actually my RME PCIe card doesn't work with any Linux distro. For testing purpose I installed Windows and FreeBSD and there is no issue to get it working on Windows and FreeBSD. $ arecord -l **** List of CAPTURE Hardware Devices **** card 0: HDSPMx579bcc [RME AIO_579bcc], device 0: RME AIO [RME AIO] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 On Fri, 12 Aug 2016 11:59:14 +0200, Set Hallstrom wrote: >Please continue the discussion off-list if you have to and stay kind >to each other. No need to continue off-list. It's absolutely inappropriate to "announce" a shop that sells the COF on clothes by an official Ubuntu Studio channel. To make Ubuntu Studio more popular, buzz marketing is a good approach, not "announcing" a commercial clothes shop. Buzz marketing is to help users on Ubuntu and Ubuntu flavour mailing lists and other related mailing lists, forums and by writing Wikis, providing good software. Donations are good, too. I'm aware that in some nations it's popular to list donars, sometimes even by a ranking, OTOH in some countries, such as Germany, it's bad taste to do so. For good reasons we donate anonymously, anything else is considered as being lobbyism or camouflaged advertising. Better configure your MUA build with --build=$(uname -m)-ubuntustudio-linux-gnu actually I build with --build=$(uname -m)-ubuntustudio-linux-gnu for my Ubuntu install, but also with --build=$(uname -m)-arch-linux-gnu for my Arch install. Regarding security concerns it's more common to build with $(uname -m)-unknown-linux-gnu among experienced users and there's nothing wrong with this apporach. You could even sell or give away clothes, stickers, patches etc. and even spread news about commercial Linux related hardware and software, but announcing a shop that sells clothes and/or cups, alcohol free-beer and similar unrelated things is a bad attitude, since without doubts it's an offence against the term "libre". Selling and announcing Emacs, install media etc. is absolutely ok. Selling clothes is as well ok, just announcing such a shop by an noncommercial distro sucks out loud. You can't seriously consider mentioning this and giving examples what could go wrong, a bad tone of voice. I programmed free pro-midi software on the C64 and shared self-made audio and MIDI circuits, when this didn't exist for Linux, "an operating system kernel first released on October 5, 1991"[1] and I chose Linux regarding the strictness FLOSS attitude. I'm even not against proprietary software and hardware, IOW I'm even not against mixing both domains, the proprietary with Linux, but there is a limit and this is mixing software and hardware with e.g. fashion ware.
