After hours of fiddling I got it to work!!
I had to change the madfuload rule for the transit.
This forum helped:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=846621
But note that the code:
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}=="0763",
SYSFS{idProduct}=="2804", RUN+="/usr/local/sbin/madfuload -l -3 -f /
usr/local/share/usb/maudio/ma004103.bin -D $env{DEVNAME}"
Is wrong. It should be (at least on my system):
ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}=="0763",
SYSFS{idProduct}=="2804", RUN+="/usr/sbin/madfuload -l -3 -f /usr/
share/usb/maudio/ma004103.bin -D $env{DEVNAME}"
Thanks!

Dear All,
I am quite a linux newbie, but am trying o slowly migrate from os x
to linux (possibly UbuntuStudio) for audio work.
I have installed UbuntuStudio on an old PC to give it a try. Now I
am trying to get a USB M-audio interface (transit) working on it - I
will soon add firewire port to the PC and try to set up my presonus
Firebox (I'll save this for another post!) but for now I have to put
up with the rubbishy USB device.
So far I have had no joy installing the transit. I have read all
these posts and followed all the instructions but no change.

So I have installed madfuload successfully. When I type lsusb I can
see the M-audio listed.

But I cannot access the interface in anyway - e.g. the only sound
card listed in sound preferences is the internal sound-card of the
computer and invoking "cat /proc/asound/cards" only lists the
internal sound card.
I would really appreciate any suggestions to get my first Linux
mission working :-)
Many Thanks
