an oldie-but-a-goodie.....(still supported with firmware this month !!) and for about $3.00 (US equivalent)... (Was new here $1,200.00+)...what could go wrong...?? Tongue

Downloaded the firmware upgrades and tomorrow will boot a windows to install them then it's back to Ubuntu and Snakeoil to see what works !! Cool

Erkss! that's a lot of moolah!... Big Grin

..... tried it in an HP t610 today with Xubuntu 20.04.... recognised and reported...!! It lives!

Now to make some analog breakout cables....need to get a DB15HD plug and shell tomorrow.

I tried with alsamixer and aplay -l arecord -l and (from a live USB Ubuntu) Audacity and they all found the card and recorded... sweet!!

I still love my old 16 gb max flash drive t520, but the t610 is certainly more moddable.

Parky Towers has a collection of mods for the t610 which doesn't include this one.
