Hey Raffaele,
I've never tried it on a laptop, (but I don't see why there would be a
difference...) but I once tried to get a MOTU 828 firewire soundcard to work
on my desktop, without even the slightest hint of success... but then again

I had many problems with the acpi-cpufreq module which dit not load
properly, no easy control on frequency etc... (and much less than one
