I wanted to buy a MOTU Traveler, but as you know, this external audio card isn't
supported by Freebob since MOTU looks hostile to support GNU/Linux...
Here is the email I wrote to MOTU sales department:
Dear all,
I was looking to buy a MOTU traveler because it's the best interface
fiting my needs I have seen on the web!
The only reason I won't do that and buy another firewire device, is
that the Traveler doesn't support GNU/Linux. I only use opensource
softwares and I work exclusively with Linux to compose my music so I
can't use your product...
It will be a great pleasure the day you will be listed in this table
:-)

Best regards.
And here is the answer from MOTU Sales Dpt:
Yohann,
Thank you for your interest.
MOTU has no current plans to support Linux OS. I will forward your
email to our Director of Marketing so that he is aware of your interest
in Linux support.
If I can be of further service, please let me know.
Dave Roberts - MOTU

My email will probably have no effect... But maybe if every musician
working with Linux and interested by the Traveler send such an email...
Cheers.
