I love this device, and I have been working on improving that driver
somewhat. Patches to current svn are at:
http://tracker.ardour.org/view.php?id=1343

There seem to currently be some issues on multiprocessor machines with this
version of the driver.

Also I note that the setup for more modern versions of udev (e.g. FC6) is
out of date, you need a line like this in your /etc/udev rules:

# Frontier Designs Tranzport

SUBSYSTEM=="usb_device", ACTION=="add", SYSFS{idVendor}=="165b",
SYSFS{idProduct}=="8101", GROUP="audio", MODE=="0666"

I just got one yesterday, as a matter of fact, for use with Ardour...
