hmm.... well, i will be taking it back next week, propably.  however,
i may get in contact with Tascam and atleast
let them know that people were able to use some of their products
under linux properly, until semi-recent changes to the product line.
that they should be putting some effort into having their devices work
in linux or at the very least, maybe provide the right linux
developers with some of the specifications.

I personally, won't be buying another Tascam product.

thanks for all of your help and clarifications.

I am going to have another stab at getting it to work, obviously i
will let you know what happens.
one thought i had was to patch echi_hcd on a more current kernel  (
those RPMs on the link you sent me, are super old ) .
as i use fedora 12 + 2.6.33  and i use alsa 1.0.23.

so obviously the Fedora guie is no good to me, reallly...
