Hi,
I'm in the market for a simple mobile recording equipment, and the Fostex
MR-8 looks nice to me.

Does anybody have experience with it under Linux?
Esp:
- the use of the USB with Linux (is it a normal mass storage device?)
If it's class compliant mass storage it'll work.
- is it possible to update the firmware from within
Linux? (otherwise I'll
have to have the shop do it for me)
- is the contents of the flashcards usable when read with a card reader?
That would depend on the file system format. That is to say as long as the
filesystem isn't proprietary you're good to go. FAT is the usual format.
thanks for any experiences,
Wilbert
