Hi,
just a quick update on the hdsp pcmcia: I went to the shop today: They
still had a couple of cards of the old design, manufactured after Nov
2004. The rev number is 0b and they work.
There was another card of the new design (also rev 32) which also
didn't work. Going up from 0b to 32 within a few months indicates
quite some development in the firmware which might be due to some
hardware change. On their website RME advertises some security means
applied to both pci and multiface to prevent unusability in case of
unfinished flash updates. Unfortunately there was no multiface II
(which apparently works with the new card) to test the old card with
the new multiface.

At the moment I have the pci card in a 32-bit system running FC4 with
a recent 2.6.12 kernel and alsa from 1.0.10rc1, including
alsa-tools-1.0.10rc1. The error is:
Hammerfall-DSP: wait for FIFO status <= 0 failed after 30 iterations
Hwdep ioctl error on card hw:1 : Input/output error.
Orm, on the PCI and PCMCIA systems that DO work, what kernel and what
alsa revs to you have? Is the only difference between "works" and
"doesn't work" the PCMCIA card? Or is this on different
systems/kernels/alsa? Are you also getting an "Hwdep ioctl error?" Or a
different ctl error?
I got the same error with my pci and pcmcia card using the most recent
knoppix with kernel version 2.6.11. I downloaded the latest 2.6.13.1
from kernel.org today and it worked right away.
On my other working machines are 2.4.26 kernels IIRC.
