Thank you! I think this is what I need.

No worries, trolls aren't interested in linux compatible soundcards ;).
I'll keep testing Linux and their audio applications and if I have an
opportunity I'll try to help to improve them... Open source is an
exciting idea but I don't like by now how *some* hackers work and I
think I can understand why most of the nowadays'companies don't invest
in this operating system.
Today I wouldn't recommend hobbyists should use Linux Audio because in
this way they will always be hobbyists... However, in my case, I've
found Linux Audio very interesting to learn a lot about the audio
software implementation (obviously because of the open source mentality)
and also for understanding what kind of things can be done (for a
user/developper point of view). But for productive work I simply can't
recommend it because Pro Tools, Reason,..., and a huge availability of
VST plugins are too far from us.
By now lets wait for the ardour and jack 1.0 release and for a stable
2.6 low-latency hardware compatible kernel...
