I have followed the instructions (last updated January 2013) at wiki.debian.org/echoaudio very closely with my 8.3.0 installation; after entering modprobe snd-echo3g I received the following message: [ 3129.360760] snd_echo3g 0000:0a:0e.0: firmware: failed to load ea/echo3g_dsp.fw (-2) [ 3129.360765] snd_echo3g 0000:0a:0e.0: Direct firmware load failed with error -2 [ 3129.360768] snd_echo3g 0000:0a:0e.0: Falling back to user helper [ 3129.550716] snd_echo3g: probe of 0000:0a:0e.0 failed with error -12 Noticing that nothing else used the /usr/local/lib/firmware/ location, I then moved the /ea directory into /lib/firmware and repeated the modprobe commands, which does not produce sound but does produce an interesting result: [ 3376.878071] snd_echo3g 0000:0a:0e.0: firmware: direct-loading firmware ea/echo3g_dsp.fw [ 3377.252008] snd_echo3g: probe of 0000:0a:0e.0 failed with error -5 So apparently echo3g_dsp.fw can be loaded from /lib/firmware (direct-loading) and not /usr/local/lib/firmware (failed to load), but something else still needs to be done differently. Unfortunately I can find no references for the error codes. I imagine -2 means the file is missing from an expected location, but have no idea what -12 and -5 could mean; can someone explain them? This sound card did work under Squeeze perfectly well, using the completely different instructions linked from the Alsa project site. I am willing to use them later as a last resort.
