Have you looked at this one?
From my experience Sounddevices products are reliable and have superb audio
quality.
I've used their on location mixer and the pre's and AD is outstanding. Never
used the usb device, but maybe someone else did...
On their site they state that the usbpre2 is supported under Linux.
Interesting.
Hope this will be helpful,
Moshe
