See freebob.sf.net for supported devices...

Correct.

RME's FW-devices aren't supported.

But why don't you combine the OSX-hardware-support with the

limited to linux. And there are ardour- and jack-packages for OSX
available and probably for a lot of other free music software too...

Wenn man mit Raubkopien Bands wie Brosis oder Britney Spears wirklich
verhindern könnte, würde ich mir noch heute einen Stapel Brenner und
einen Sack Rohlinge kaufen.
