What driver parameters did you use? (and where did you put them :-)) Just
as I don't quite have the money for a soundcard at the moment.

Intel-HDA I assume? Try 3 periods per buffer
(obviously unlike every
other
card on the Earth and the moon). Works pretty well* with that on my
toshiba with Intel HDA. Although I am looking for a good firewire card at
the
moment. Doesn't work with any powers of 2 almost at all (managed to
start
it with 2ppb once with 64 ms latency)
On my laptop (Dell D820), the card worked really well with a few driver
parameters, 3 periods and certain mixer settings (=selecting an input source
for capturing). Alas, this was with alsa 1.0.14 (or something). I'm
currently unable to run jackd with a newer version of alsa.
I'm not bothered by that though, it works well enough for youtube. I have a
real sound interface for serious work. I have done interesting measurements
with the card though. Like getting more noise on the inputs with mixer
levels at 0 than with raising the mixer levels just a bit above it. That and
the AD unit totally misbehaving when running in 192kHz.
