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

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. ak.
