It appears to be, assuming you are using the HDSP 9652.

You also have support for the Via sound chip loaded. This is OK but it
raises the question which one is the 'default' sound chip. Please
provide the output of /proc/asound/cards.

[mark@Godzilla mark]$ cat /proc/asound/cards
0 [default        ]: H-DSP - Hammerfall DSP
                     RME Hammerfall HDSP 9652 at 0xf5800000, irq 11

No - the Linux driver is the snd_hdsp9652 thing above. Xilinx is the
semiconductor company that makes the big chip on the HDSP 9652 card.
That chip is programmable. RME did the programming.
