Hmmm... it used to be, a while back, that you had to load -- well, set 
it up to autoload -- the firmware yourself. But lately, the boot process 
(whatever it is) does that now (until this version.) How do I know? 
Because the USB light of the 8x8 blinks very quickly when not loaded. 
When the firmware is loaded, the blink frequency changes. That's how I 
know it was loaded.

I turned the unit off/on and watched to make sure. Sure enough, the 
light frequency changed.

In the past, I had to set it up to load. Then, with the new USB updates, 
it did this automatically and (I swear, really!) that the 8x8 was being 
loaded and was being recognized. In fact, I was amazed that it worked 
automatically... and I thought, cool.

Well.. crap... I guess I need to look at this again. Thanks!

Well, the midisport is not being recognized. Why do you think it is? Do
you see any messages in /var/log/messages related to hotplug? I seem to
remember some of the midisport interfaces need a firmware download, I
don't know if the 8x8 is one of them. Did you install the firmware
somewhere yourself?
