line 6 ux2
 

hi
I am trying to get my ux2 working in ububtu 14.04. I have tied to load the drivers but figuring out how to do that is beyond my skill level. can anyone help?

What have you done exactly?

The line 6 ux2 should work in a number of distro's if you have connected it usb. I have that and generally have to select the correct audio device in settings. Not sure if I have tested ubuntu but you should be able to update it if it doesn't have it.

When you do a lsusb command, what does it report for usb connections?

There is a way to check what drivers are loaded in kernel. I get the feeling ux2 is supported on that kernel.

I think I know a way to get toneport or gearbox running on linux. Tried it a long time ago and had problems because I didn't know how to get past linemonkey.


I think this is the kernel info. http://cateee.net/lkddb/web-lkddb/LINE6_USB.html

here is my results from lsusb.

randy@dell:~$ lsusb
Bus 004 Device 005: ID 0c45:6a04 Microdia

I have no idea what this means.

how do i check what drivers are on kernel

Might use commands lsmod and modprobe.

You can search for your kernel. I'd assume it is posted someplace exactly all the drivers that have been added to it. Gets a bit long and you may have to poke around between usb or audio in that list.


What have you tried to use for installing?

I know a Debian 8.x will see the ux2 so you can try that on your system with a live usb and get info from that.

You never said if it is usb attached. I don't see a usb entry. Maybe I can remember to test this tomorrow.
