I use an M-Audio Delta 1010LT on Debian Squeeze. I have used the 8
analog inputs and outputs, but none of the others (I think a couple of
digital ins/outs and MIDI are all that's left).
Two of the analog inputs are XLR and have a built-in pre-amp. The other
analog inputs are RCA and are line-level, so you'll need a pre-amp if
you plan to hook up a microphone or instrument to those inputs.
As for software, I use:
envy24control
ardour2
guitarix
rakarrack
jack
pulseaudio
rhythmbox
iceweasel/flash/gnash
Everything works fine as far as I can tell.
