There are a few USB 2 interfaces that have been confirmed to work with
Linux/JACK such as the Presonus AudioBox 1818VSL if you need more than a
couple of inputs or the Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 if you have lesser
requirements. There's more than just those 2 but thats just off the top of
my head and I've not personally tried either yet although I should receive
my Scarlett 2i4 soon.
