[linux-audio-user] St-audio C-port 2000

[Aleksandr Koltsoff]

Hello

Found some emails from 2004 about the status of this card/box-combo in linux.

Does anyone have any updated info on the status? With ubuntu5.04/alsa and 
envy24control I can do data output trough the box, but fail to get any input 
from the box. Based on documentation from 2002 (st-audio one), seems that the 
inputs need to be "enabled" by their software (routing?) that will turn on a 
LED above a pair of lines. I haven't managed to do this by any means.

The PCI card is interestingly enough identified by lspci as "VIA Tech Inc 
ICE1712 [Envy24]" although I don't know why it's VIA. Maybe they share the 
PCI vendor and subvendor id, go figure.

I have some experience in driver and software programming and am willing to 
help if anyone needs it. I looked the envy24control code over, but the only 
feeling that I get currently is that my head will soon explode.

Barring getting c-port working in Linux, can anyone recommend any comparable 
gear that works in Linux (USB2/firewire preferred)? Multitrack audio, inputs 
more important than outputs (unbalanced ok).

Thank you for your time and hope to hear from you soon.
