Takashi, thanks for these corrections!
It'd be great to see yet more reports about successes, failures, suspected
problems, etc, etc concerning different soundcards and chipsets on
alsa-user (and other lists)! It's much easier to make purchasing decisions
if you know that at least someone has had success with the
desktop/laptop/soundcard model (and not just the chipset!) you're about to
choose.

(brand, possibly any IBM models)?
Ugh, not good. Thanks for the clarification!

- snd-intel8x0
(nice chipset, is suitable for low-latency use)
the real-time response is dependent
on the system.
some notebooks have problems in this regard. - Yamaha
YMF7xx/DS-XG (some have reported that these work ok,
but in any case they have a max 3 periods limitation
similar to cs4281, which can confuse apps)
no, instead, the interrupts are
generated in the fixed time-length,
not at the period boundary or the end of buffer.
thus, this chip doesn't suit for low-latency purpose at all.
