Thanks for the reply. I had some returns from the
holiday, and could only get store credit. I had my
eye on one of the Creative Labs X-Fi's, but I don't
see it supported on the ALSA site.

Does anybody have the Creative Labs Sound
Blaster
Live! External USB Sound Card (Model: SB0490)
working
with Linux/alsa?
How is the performance? Was it difficult to
install
and setup? What audio software do you use with
it?
I am thinking about getting one.

Be afraid of using usb gear like this is you want to
do low latency
stuff. Some usb controllers really vary in quality.
My laptop was
incapable of running my griffin imic full duplex but
my desktop runs
it very well. I'm running it at 128 X 3, with
standard kernel without
xruns, though i haven't tried it any lower. The
griffin is very nice
if you want just stereo in / out otherwise i'd go
for a second hand
pcmcia echo mona, layla or indigo.
