Hi,
Is anyone out there running a 2.6.x kernel under Gentoo and using a
Midisport 2x2? I'm trying to set up my 2x2 under Gentoo but cannot
make either hotplug and/or Alsa happy. The Alsa sound card page seems
to be down as they are redoing the web site technically and I cannot
access any info.
The 2x2 is seen by usbview as an unknown device. (763/1001 I believe)
I've loaded fxload on the system.
Anyway, looking for a few pointers.
Thanks in advance,
Mark

You need a firmware image and some hotplug script to call fxload with
it. For the 2x2, you can use either the loader from
<http://usb-midi-fw.sf.net/> or the loader included with the driver at
<http://homepage3.nifty.com/StudioBreeze/software/usbmidi-e.html>.

Thanks Clemens. I used the Sourceforge installer and it was a
painless. I actually used Wine to extract the Windows .SYS file. The
installer crashed (Wine, 'eh?) but the files all resided in the
windows temp directory. After that the install proceeded exactly as
was expected and the Midisport is recognized when I boot even if it is
attached, so I guess the Gentoo init scripts don't have the bug that
some other distro's have had.
BTW - here are the hand edits I did to my Alsa configuration last
night. Since the Alsa page for the Midisport wasn't (isn't) available
right now, can you confirm that these are OK?

Not sure if the cards_limit should be 2 or 3 so I followed the PlanetCCRMA doc.
Again, thanks very much!
Cheers,
Mark

Just to be sure, add index options so that the drivers load at the
correct position even if snd-usb-audio gets loaded first for some
reason:
options snd-atiixp index=0
options snd-usb-audio index=1
...
options snd cards_limit=3

Well, it looks as if you have two cards ...

Changes applied. Thanks for the info. I always forget about the index option.
