Felix, Ricardo, thanks for the info. I'm a bit cautious now because I've bought other kinds of USB adapters/converters before that are advertised as "just plug-and-play", don't say anything about requiring special drivers, but once you plug them in, you see they've been prepared to autorun some executable to install windows drivers. One time I even bought one that said that it supported Linux, and it did, but not linux-libre :)
I wonder if the LinuxMint person on LinuxMusicians was using a "pure" Mint...
