LinuxQuestions.org - does alesis multimix 8 usb work?

i have ubuntu 6.10 edgy installed.

Code:

kernel 2.6.17-11-generic

ALSA works with my audiocard except for mic. so i've decided to try out my alesis multimix 8 usb mixer.

here's the output from lsusb.

Code:

Bus 004 Device 002: ID 046d:c408 Logitech, Inc. Marble Mouse (4-button)

Bus 004 Device 001: ID 0000:0000  

Bus 003 Device 001: ID 0000:0000  

Bus 002 Device 003: ID 08bb:2900 Texas Instruments Japan #this is the mixer

Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000  

Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000

here's the bottom output from dmesg with the usb unplugged.

Code:

here it is with it plugged in.

is there something i'm missing so i can use this mixer with audio recording apps?

this mixer is plug n' play on mac and windows, no drivers required.

thanks for any help and i'll post any additional info if needed.
