I hope this is just a bug. With Feisty M-Audio 2496 cards can't be used, worked in both Dapper and Edgy, switching cards in the GNOME preferences requires a reboot in a word it was/is a mess and many people I know personally complained to me about it. I'll try install Gusty over the weekend and see if there is any change in this situation. -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
