Asking for a friend: the need is for 8-out soundcard and USB is very
attractive as it can run on laptop.  We have looked at M-Audio and
Eridol external boxes.  Question is will they work with Linux?  So far
only limited information found
  Thanks

Hi John,

I use interfaces from both manufacturers. I have two M-Audio Delta 66 
units and an Edirol UA25 (not the EX version). Both work flawlessly with 
my Ubuntu and Debian boxes. Neither item provides the requested channel 
count, but if these units work okay you might have good experience with 
the expanded models (M-Audio Delta 1010 or 1010LT, not sure what Edirol 
makes that will meet the requirement).

Best,

dp

I hear that RME sound cards work well on linux. But that's the PCI
version. So this might be attractive? I don't know if this one works
on linux though.
