I have put many of my results on qbik.ch, where also some info written
by Clemens Ladisch is to be found.

This seems to be a bug in the kernel actually. I've found another USB
device which wouldn't work on my Via-board (KT133) but worked on my
laptop like the UA-1X did (or did not), and that's the Contour
ShuttleXpress (a jog wheel).

There have been some patches on linux-usb-devel recently regarding the
VIA problem, but I didn't find the time to apply them yet. 

Tips are hard to give. I like both Terratec devices, also the
Audiotrak devices are well supported. The Optoplay might be a good,
small alternative to the UA-1X, but it doesn't record. :(

Edirol devices that did worked on my Via machine are for example the
UA-5, UA-20 and UA-1D. Tascam US122 works fine, too. 

(Still: If I was to choose between USB and PCI, I would always choose
PCI.)

ciao
