Get someone to
support one of the many firewire devices under ALSA ;)
This is something I'm looking forward to __greatly__. Access to firewire
devices would accelerate my own usage computers in a live situation (and
recording for that matter). I'd like to help but it looks like no one really
knows in which direction we shall proceed.
A good start might be for the ALSA developers to ask for Firewire 410
specs from M-Audio - assuming they have the time and inclination to work
on firewire drivers ontop of everything else they do.
I guess mLan is the answer, though I'm not sure
about the question :)
mLan could be the answer, but sadly there are a lot of non-standard
firewire audio interfaces, and all the mLan ones are quite expensive
AFAICT. We do now have an offer of (complete) mLan specs from yamaha, and
they may have someone working on it allready (they weren't clear on that).
