Hardware List

[Ricardo Lameiro]

Sorry, but i think that nick had a great Idea.

Jussi, we should not duplicate, but better make a specialized one.
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport In here, I just searched for edirol
audio boards and only are there 2. the ua-4fx now works with advanced mode
(i myself tested the patch before going to the alsa drivers at kernel) and i
use an FA-101 (firewire device) that uses FFADO drivers + JACK and it works.
So that list is outdated and is not aimed at PRO hardware or specific
solutions. One of the 2, either we make our own list or we try to update the
hardware list at ubuntu.
I think we should make one in the ubuntu webpage, so if anyone wanting audio
has a link at the ubuntustudio webpage and follow it. the 2 can be
complementing pages. Maybe our list could be a test case. Each one puts its
hardware and some caracteristics. (jack,also support, latency, mixer,
etc...) I will contribute with my hardware.
